# List of Asian records in athletics

Asian records in athletics are the best marks set in an event by an athlete who competes for a member nation of the Asian Athletics Association. The organisation is responsible for ratification and it analyses each record before approving it. Records may be set in any continent and at any competition, providing that the correct measures are in place (such as wind-gauges) to allow for a verifiable and legal mark.
