Of course, “track” and “marathon” are nouns. But they’re part of an adverbial phrase. So if you look at the complete phrase (such as AROUND the track), you’ll see the adverbs.

I am confused by the sentence with 5 adverbs
Harrison runs dutifully around the track every morning before breakfast to prepare for the marathon
Surely track and marathon are nouns not adverbs?

Adamson: In the Royal Order of Adjectives, size and shape are interchangeable, but age should follow both size and shape.

a good teacher thanks.
My question; Is it wrong to interchange appearance in order of adjectives (size,shape and age)?
