Athletics at the 2008 Summer Olympics


Athletics at the 2008 Summer Olympics - Athletics competitions during the Beijing Games took place at the National Stadium between August 15 and 24.

Two Belarusians - Vadzim Dziewiatouski and Ivan Cichan - who had won a silver and bronze medal in the hammer throw, were initially disqualified after detecting unauthorized doping agents in their bodies. In 2010, the Sports Court of Arbitration in Lausanne declared anti-doping tests to be invalid because the Beijing laboratory did not meet international standards. Kenyan Samuel Wanjiru, who won the Marathon, became the youngest gold medalist in the competition since 1932.
