How many times does an athlete run round a standard track in 800m event?
Answer Details
In an 800m event in athletics, the athlete runs around a standard track two times. Each lap of the standard track is 400 meters, so to complete an 800m race, the athlete must run two laps around the track. The athlete starts at the starting line and runs one full lap around the track, which is 400 meters, then continues to run a second lap and finishes at the finish line. Therefore, the answer is "Two".
