What is a medley relay?
A medley relay in track and field involves a team of runners, each covering a different distance. Unlike a standard relay where all distances are the same, a medley might have legs of, for example, 100m, 200m, 300m, and 400m. Aria's bronze medal shows her contribution to a team effort.
