The most jam-packed World Athletics Indoor Championships Kujawy Pomorze 2026 session yet is complete, as the Day 2 PM session featured finals in the 400, 3000, heptathlon, men's pole vault, women's triple jump, men's 60m hurdles, and women's 60m.

The legacy has begun for Cuba's Leyanis Perez Hernandez.

Zaynab Dosso of Italy had already tasted bronze (in 2024) and silver (in 2025) at the World Athletics Indoor Championships. There was one problem: To complete her medal set at the 2026 World Athletics Indoor Championships , she would need to beat Olympic 100m champion Julien Alfred.

Mondo Duplantis again did something that nobody had ever done before.

Just because it hasn't been done before doesn't mean it can't be done when it matters most.

The track and field world was abuzz with opinions about the new World Indoors 400m two-section format. After the men's race finished with all three medalists coming from the second heat, it seemed unlikely that the home crowd favorite Natalia Bukowiecka of Poland could medal from the first section.

Cole Hocker may be the Olympic champion. He may have the faster 1500m PB. He may even have the better kick. But on Saturday at the World Athletics Indoor Championships, 2023 World 1500m Champion Josh Kerr of Scotland timed his kick just right, was able to gap the field, and hung on to reclaim his World Indoor 3K title after winning the event in 2024.

If the race went to plan, Ethiopia's Freweyni Hailu would have blasted to the front and ran the legs off the rest of the field to defend her World Indoor 3000m title. But they run the race for a reason.

Christopher Morales Williams may not have the world record -- his 2024 mark was invalidated due to the type of starting blocks used. But what he does have is the 2026 World Athletics Championships title -- and to do it, he beat American Khaleb McRae.

It wasn't easy. It took a 60mH world heptathlon best. And in the last grueling event, it took a personal best.

With over 45,000,000 views in just one day, chances are either you or someone you know has already seen MrBeast's new YouTube video, "100 Kids Vs World's Strongest Man!", which prominently features World 100m champion Melissa Jefferson-Wooden as its first matchup in a series of competitions pitting elite athletes against normal people. Though MrBeast's 444,000,000 subscribers no doubt brought attention and fanfare to the sport, Jefferson-Wooden's segment in the video was over in less than 100 seconds -- not many know the full story behind it.

To win your first World Marathon Major is a difficult task; to do it while skipping two major minute barriers en route to a 2:14:56 is something else.

America's fastest records-legal marathon was on tap this Sunday as domestic and international challengers including Conner Mantz, Jacob Kiplimo, and Ejgayehu Taye sought to set PBs, break records, and make podiums at the 2025 Bank of America Chicago Marathon.

The penultimate evening session of the 2025 World Athletics Track and Field Championships is in the past, and Anna Hall, Beatrice Chebet, Madison-Lee Wesche,  Juliesy Angulo, and Emmanuel Wanyonyi are walking home from it as gold medal holders.

Anna Hall has always been a contender -- she's held the second-best heptathlon points total behind only Jackie Joyner-Kersee, and her 2:01 800m best is miles ahead of her competitors.
