Athletics at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Qualification

Main article: Athletics at the 2016 Summer Olympics

For the athletics competitions at the 2016 Summer Olympics, the following qualification systems were in place. The list has been updated as of May 1, 2015. Qualification ends on July 11, 2016.

Russian disqualification

Because of the suspension of the Russian Athletics Federation by the IAAF, due to widespread doping violations, Russia currently will not qualify as a team for these Olympics or other international competitions, and unless this suspension is lifted in time, Russia will be unable to send an athletics delegation to these Games. While Russia will continue to seek further appeals, the IAAF confirmed its decision on June 18, 2016 after a report by a five-member task force which reported that Russia had failed to fully address its “deep-seeded culture” of doping. The IAAF did provide for the possibly of accepting individual Russian athletes who have been sufficiently tested outside of the Russian system. One athlete suggested was Yuliya Stepanova for her efforts to expose the scandal.

“The systematic doping that has been ongoing in Russia, it’s difficult to pick the clean athletes. As you know, one or two or 100 negative tests does not mean an athlete is clean. History has not shown that that is the case.”

— Rune Anderson, IAAF Task Force Chairman

The IAAF then stated on June 24th, that athletes from Russia seeking "exceptional eligibility for International Competition under Competition Rule 22.1A" will be considered and have the permission to compete, "not for Russia but as a neutral athlete", following guidelines. these athletes have to clearly and convincingly show that they are not co involved in the Russian system (outside the country and subject to other systems).

Qualifying standards

Different from the previous Olympics, a National Olympic Committee (NOC) may enter up to 3 qualified athletes in each individual event if all athletes meet the entry standard during the qualifying period. An NOC may also enter a maximum of 1 qualified relay team per event. NOCs may enter athletes regardless of time (1 athlete per sex) if they have no athletes meeting the entry standard. This makes it possible for every nation to have a minimum of two representatives in the sport.

The qualifying time standards may be obtained in various meets during the given period that have the approval of the IAAF. All approved outdoor meets and indoor meets with the exception of 100 m, 200 m and 110 /100 m hurdles races are eligible. The qualifying period for the 10,000 m, marathon, walks, and combined events starts from January 1, 2015 to July 11, 2016; for the remaining events, it is from May 1, 2015 to July 11, 2016.

For the relays, a maximum of sixteen qualified NOCs shall be entitled to each event. The top eight teams in each event at the 2015 IAAF World Relays (held in Nassau, Bahamas on May 2 and 3, 2015) will guarantee a spot on their respective NOCs for the Olympics. The remaining half in each event must be selected according to IAAF World Ranking List as of July 12, 2016 based on the aggregate of the 2 fastest times achieved by NOCs during the given period.

In addition to the qualifying standards below, marathon runners finishing in the top 20 of the 2015 IAAF World Championships or in the top 10 of any IAAF Gold Label marathon within the qualification period are also treated as having earned the A standard.

The NOCs are still allowed to select athletes using their own rules, on the condition that all of them have made the qualifying time. For example, the United States selects athletes based on the result of the 2016 United States Olympic Trials event, but has a policy of entering every athlete so qualified. Sweden only enters athletes good enough to reach at least the eighth position, based on an assessment by the Swedish NOC.

The IAAF Qualifying Standards are as follows:
