Athletics at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris were held between 1 and 11 August 2024, featuring a total of 48 medal events across three distinct sets: track and field, road running, and racewalking.[1] Four venues were used: Pont d'Iéna for race walking, Hôtel de Ville and Les Invalides for the start and end points of the marathon races, and Stade de France for the track and field events.
The competition featured an identical number of medal events for men and women, the first instance in Olympic history. The marathon race walk mixed relay through a marathon course was contested for the first time at these Games, replacing the men's 50 kilometres race walk in the quest for gender equality.[2]
Another significant change to the athletics program was the repechage round format in all individual track events from 200 to 1500 m and the hurdles events (110 m for men, 100 m for women, and 400 m for both), a vast opportunity for the runners to have a second chance of entering the semifinal phase. This format replaced the former system of athletes advancing through the fastest overall times (q) apart from those qualifying directly in the first-round heats (Q).[3]
