mistrzostwa polski w lekkiej atletyce masters m40
The masters world track-and-field championships gather adult athletes in Gothenburg for a late-summer meet, featuring M40 races within the men's program. The M40 category is for male athletes around forty years old, positioned among other older age groups rather than as one open race. The competition includes 32 men's and 32 women's events, covering track races, field events, and road-style competitions within the same championship period. This event is substantial for masters sport, drawing over 8,000 athletes from 110 nations and offering an online broadcast for remote viewers. The events take place at Slottsskogsvallen, Björlanda Athletics Center, Ullevi, and Slottsskogen park, utilizing both stadium venues and parkland. The M40 results indicate the competitive level: Antoine Echols secured the men's 100 m in 10.85, Rondrick Parker won the 200 m in 22.33, and Jakub Adamczyk claimed the 400 m in 49.28. The overall championships span age groups from M35 to M95, meaning competitors in their nineties are listed alongside those just entering masters competition. The United States topped the medal standings with 110 gold medals, and the meet saw 24 world records set or matched.
