stadium track

Runners circle here

A stadium track is an oval running track surrounding a sports field, typically 400 meters for one lap.

The term distinguishes this standard venue from cross-country courses or road races: She trains on the stadium track three times a week.

Track and field events held in such venues are sometimes called stadium track events.
