    Newbie here:

    I occasionally run at the local high school track at the football field. I
    assume it is a 400 yard track. It has markings all around it for (I guess)
    stagger, meters, etc. There are triangles, lines, dotted lines, different
    colors, etc. A lot of stuff.

    Anyone know of a web site that might help me identify some of these marks?
    Just curious..... A Google search for "track and markings" brought up all
    sorts of strange things (lots of physics stuff), none of which seemed
    relevant.

    THANKS!

    The small brown circles are stains left by joggers, after being
    confronted by a gang of girl scouts.
