There are various different sanitary products that you can use during your period, as well as tampons and pads there are also similar options such as sponges and period belts, or totally different options such as menstrual cups or softcups. Tampons and pads are the most widely-known options but not the only options, and not the best options.
Many women don't use sanitary products at all, this is known as 'free-bleeding' where women layer clothing and bleed freely, you can also use what is known as 'menstrual release' which is where women learn to recognize when they are about to bleed and use vaginal muscles to control when the blood leaves the body so they can empty-out blood just like using the bathroom.

Some people cannot use menstrual cups so will use tampons when they need internal menstrual products.
Do you where tampons or pads when your doing long activities?
You have more options than tampons and pads, you can use menstrual cups and softcups which can be worn for up to 12 hours (tampons and pads need to be changed after 4-6 hours or sooner if full), also they don't leak so more convenient than tampons or pads. If using tampons and pads you may want to use both so that the pads can act as back-up if your tampon leaks before you can get to the bathroom. Otherwise use as you would normally and just make sure to change often so it doesn't leak.

Can you menstrate with tampons and not pads?
No, if you use tampons you still have to use pads - it's not safe to wear tampons before your period or with light flow, and it's not hygienic to use tampons throughout your entire period so you should ideally alternate with pads or at least wear pads at night. Tampons dry-out vaginal tissues causing ulceration which increases TSS risks by giving TSST-1 toxins responsible for TSS a more direct route into the bloodstream - thus tampons shouldn't be worn without sufficient flow. Tampons encourage bacterial growth and prevent vaginal cleaning, inserting one tampon after another keeps bacteria within the vagina, using pads allows your vagina a chance to clean itself and heal.
