Every four years, the Olympic Games generate high expectations not only to see which athletes will climb onto the podium but also to see what Olympic records can be achieved, both at the world and Olympic level. Paris Olympics 2024 is no exception and after fifteen days of activity, there are 35 new Olympic records.

Difference between world records and Olympic records

As the name suggests, the basic difference between the two is the context in which they are recorded. In the case of the world record, it is the best performance recorded globally in a specific discipline. These records are approved by the corresponding international federations and are obtained in official competitions such as World Cups, World Championships, qualifiers, etc. For this reason, they can be constantly updated since they are not limited to the frequency of the event and can be set at any time. 

An Olympic record, on the other hand, is only set during the Olympic Games, so the possibility of breaking it occurs every four years. So, although an Olympic record may sometimes be lower than a world record, it carries with it a very specific prestige.

Athletics is one of the traditional disciplines of the modern Olympic Games, having its first appearance in the first edition of the games in Athens in 1896. When talking about Olympic records in athletics, we must take into account the difference between a world record and an Olympic record, since the latter only refers to marks achieved during a Games. An Olympic record can also be a world record. Olympic records are the best marks ever achieved in the history of the Olympic Games and can only be broken every four years.

Oldest Olympic Records in Athletics

Even today there are several Olympic records that are still valid, some like that of Bob Beamon and his 8.90m in the long jump in the now distant time of Mexico 68 or that of the Soviet Sergey Litvinov and his 84.80m in the hammer throw event in Seoul 88.

In the women's category, there are seven Olympic records that have survived since Seoul 88. The most notable is the American Florence Griffith, who set two records in the 100m and 200m, 10'62 and 21'34s respectively, which are considered impossible to beat. The oldest, however, dates back to Moscow in 1980, when the Soviet Nadezhda Olizarenko set the 800m in 1:53.43.

However, since Seoul 1988, an Olympic record has always been broken in athletics, with a whopping five in the men's section and three in the women's at the last Games in Rio 2016.

Men's Olympic Records in Athletics

In the men's 100m and 200m, the champion is Jamaican Usain Bolt, with a time of 9.63 and 19.30 seconds respectively, set in 2012 and 2008. Curiously, the legendary sprinter holds world records that are lower than the Olympic ones: 9.58s and 19.19s, both achieved in 2009. 

In a remarkable achievement, Indian para swimmer Suyash Jadhav, on wednesday clinched the 2024 Paris Paralympics quota in the Men's 50m Butterfly S7 category.

Jadhav's outstanding performance at the Asian Para Games, where he clocked an impressive time of 32.22 seconds, clinched Paris Paralympics quota for the upcoming mega event in Paris. This accomplishment adds to Jadhav's legacy in para swimming.

Suyash Jadhav first gained international recognition in 2015 when he became the sole Indian Para swimmer to achieve the 'A' qualifying mark for the 2016 Paralympics in Rio. Fast forward to 2023, and he emerged as the lone Indian swimmer to secure a medal at the Hangzhou Asian Para Games, held in October.

The veteran para swimmer, who had the privilege of interacting with the Honourable Prime Minister along with other Indian medallists, has been an inspiration in the world of para sports. Jadhav's journey into swimming began at the age of three, encouraged by his father, a former state-level swimmer. Despite facing adversity with the loss of both palms and wrists due to electrocution, Suyash's determination brought him back to training two years later, marking the beginning of an extraordinary career.

Jadhav's accolades include winning silver and bronze medals at the IWAS World Games in Sochi, Russia, in 2015. He continued to make history by securing medals, including a gold in the 50m Butterfly, at the Jakarta Asian Para Games in 2018. In 2021, he once again qualified for the Tokyo Paralympics, reaffirming his status as one of India's leading para swimmers.
