All this information you read is actually very important to our world today. Think about it. We would have never had the Olympics if it wasn't for the Greeks. We might not even have any sports at all, since the Greeks created so many. The Equestrian events consisted of chariot racing and riding. we probably wouldn't have horse races today if it wasn't for the Greeks. As for the Pentathlon events they made a huge impact on our world today. The Pentathlon events consisted of discus, the long jump, running, wrestling, and javelin. These events were known to require the most skills. Greeks got trainers and worked out daily so they could beat their competitors in these events. The Greeks basically started training and fitness. Imagine a world where no one worked out and there were no gyms or trainers! They also had judges and spectators during the Olympics. They made sure everything was fair and that nobody cheated. They also had training rooms, like gymnasiums and pools. They created basically the same stadiums we use today for Olympic events. Without the Greeks we wouldn't have an idea about what stadiums look like. Greeks created strategies and tactics to beat their competitors. They were SO important. They basically created our future! We wouldn't know the importance of fitness, fairness and we would've never had the chance to compete or watch the Olympics if it wasn't for the Greeks. They made fitness important and fun. I don't know what we would've done without the Greeks.
