Track and field is celebrated and respected worldwide as a premier sport. One of the disciplines of track and field is the decathlon. With its origins in Greece, the name combines the words deca (meaning ten) and -athlon (meaning competition). The decathlon developed from the ancient pentathlon competitions held at the ancient Greek Olympics. Pentathlons involved five disciplines – long jump, discus, javelin, sprint and a wrestling match. The decathlon was introduced in Olympia during 708 BC; this competition was extremely popular for many centuries. A ten-event competition known as the "all-around" or "all-round" championship, like the modern decathlon, was first held at the United States amateur championships in 1884 and became a mainstay by 1890. Traditionally, the title of “World’s Greatest Athlete” has been given to the person who wins the decathlon. This tradition began when the modern decathlon appeared in the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm when King Gustav V of Sweden told Jim Thorpe, "Sir, you are the world's greatest athlete" after Thorpe won the decathlon. The decathlon is a competition that consists of 10 track and field events held over two days. The 10 events featured are 100 meters, long jump, shot put, high jump, 400 meters, 110-meter hurdles, discus, pole vault, javelin, and 1500 meters. The winners are determined by the combined performance in all events. Performance is judged on a points system in each event, not by the position achieved. For track events, faster time produces a higher score. For field events, greater distance or height produces a higher score.
