Decathlon is an athletic event based on ten separate events combined together. It's scored using a points system. The events making up the decathlon are: 100 meter race, long jump, shot put, high jump, 400 meter race, 110 meter hurdles, discus throw, pole vault, javelin throw, and 1500 meter race. The winner of the decathlon is usually considered the (male) Olympic champion or world's best athlete because of the wide variety of proficiencies he must have. (The equivalent event for women is the seven-event heptathlon.)
