Why do track races involve so much strategy? Shouldn’t runners just go at whatever pace gives them the best time?

In lane running, yeah, basically just run as fast as possible, its more or less a time trial in which multiple people are doing their time trial simultaneously
For non-lane events, there’s a lot of tactics involved passing one another or how to take corners the best and such, and where to be at different points — however, of course, one of the tactics you can use, which you absolutely see, is just be faster than everyone else and win the race. Its really common to see this when one or two people are much better than others, and you see this at all levels of competition.
