Athletics will be one of the sports held at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland. As a founding sport, athletics had appeared consistently since its introduction at the 1911 Inter-Empire Games, the recognized precursor to the Commonwealth Games. [1]

Contents

Out-of-stadium events such as the marathon race have been dropped for this cycle, but the Games will see the reintroduction of the mile race, branded as the Commonwealth Mile for both sexes, to link to the strong tradition of mile running and races in the Commonwealth and previous Commonwealth Games, as well as the introduction of a mixed 4 x 400 metres relay.

A record program of 16 para-athletics events will be included in the Games [2] .
