The competition is just getting underway at the 2024 Paris Paralympics and one of the most thrilling sports to watch has tons of events. Para Track and Field, also known as Para Athletics, is one of the oldest and most popular sports for athletes and spectators alike.  

Debuting at the 1960 Paralympics in Rome, Para Athletics has been included in every single Summer Games. With 164 different medal events in Paris, Paris Athletics is the largest sport for athletes and medal events across the Olympics and Paralympics.  

The Team USA athletes are ready to win gold. Watch it unfold LIVE on Peacock. 

When are the 2024 Paris Paralympics Athletics events? 

Para Athletics will take place from August 30 to September 8.  

What venues will host Track and Field events? 

The majority of Para Athletics events will be held in the Stade de France, the largest stadium in the country. Initially built for 1998 FIFA World Cup, the Stade de France is now used for French football and rugby games. The various Men’s and Women’s Marathons will take place in the town of La Courneuve, 5 miles from the Paris city center, at the Parc Georges Valbon.  

Who will be competing for Team USA? 

Team USA has 55 athletes competing in Para Athletics, and a mix of veterans and rookies will be in the mix. One athlete to note is Tatyana McFadden, who is making her seventh Paralympics appearance and has won 20 medals in various T54 events. Ezra Frech, a silver Parapan American Games medalist, will be making his debut in Paris. Paralympic champions Jeremy Campbell, Breanna Clark, Sam Grewe, and Nick Mayhugh will be hoping to continue their success on the world stage. Also to watch for is Hunter Woodhall, who has one silver and two bronze medals from previous games and whose wife Tara Davis-Woodhall won gold in Women’s Long Jump at the Olympics earlier this month.  

What is the classification system for Para Athletics? 

In order to promote fair competition, a classification system is used to determine what category athletes compete in. For Para Athletics, classification is based on how an individual’s disability affects athletic performance. Depending on the disability, a wheelchair, throwing seat, or prosthesis may be used for the competition or athletes with a vision impairment may use a guide or coach.  

Classification:  

Letter: T (track) or F (field) 

Number 1-8: the first number represents the disability; the second number represents severity (with 1 being the most severe and 8 being the least).  

Classes T11-T13/ F11-F13: vision impairment 

Class T20/ F20: intellectual impairment  

Classes T31-T38/ F31-F38: co-ordination impairment (including conditions such as ataxia, athetosis, and hypertonia) — athletes may perform standing or seated 

Classes T40-T41/ F40-F41: short stature 

Classes T42-T44/ F42-F44: lower limb deficiency, leg length difference, impaired muscle power, or impaired range of movement — athletes compete without a prosthesis 

Classes T45-T47/ F45-F47: upper limb deficiency, impaired muscle power, or impaired range of movement — athletes compete with a prosthesis 

Classes T51-T54: wheelchair races 

Classes F51-F58: seated throws  

Classes T61-T64/ F61-F64: lower limb deficiency or leg length difference — athletes compete with a prosthesis
