The wider picture

Track and field medals were awarded for individual events rather than for an overall championship score. The event’s distance and final date identify the performance within an athletics programme running from 22 September to 1 October. The finalists raced directly for the medals after progressing through the earlier rounds. Their final times, rather than the times recorded in qualifying races, established the podium.
