The term 'TRACK CONTEST' refers to a type of competition that involves running on a track. The two crossword solutions, MEET and RACE, are both related to this type of event. A track MEET is an organized event in which athletes compete in various track and field events, such as sprints, hurdles, and long-distance races. A RACE is an individual event in which competitors run against each other to see who can finish first. Both of these activities are part of a track contest.
