Athletics Pentathlon

The athletics pentathlon is a combined-events competition consisting of five track and field disciplines contested in a single day, with the specific events varying historically and by gender (for example, the women's pentathlon traditionally included the 100m hurdles, shot put, high jump, long jump, and 800m before evolving into the heptathlon). Athletes earn points for each event based on standardized scoring tables, and the competitor with the highest total wins. It rewards versatility and all-around athletic ability rather than excellence in a single discipline.
