# Atletiek op de Olympische Zomerspelen 1984

Atletiek is een van de sporten die beoefend werden tijdens de Olympische Zomerspelen 1984 in Los Angeles. De competitie werd gehouden in het Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, dat ook de gastheer was geweest van de Olympische Spelen van 1932 en de thuisbasis is van onder meer UCLA. Door de boycot van de Sovjet-Unie was sprake van een gedevalueerd toernooi, vooral bij de werpnummers.
De competitie kende twee nieuwe onderdelen voor de vrouwen: de 3.000 meter en de marathon. Daarnaast waren dit de eerste Olympische Spelen die werden gehouden nadat de IAAF eigen wereldkampioenschappen te organiseren, hetgeen in 1983 voor het eerst was gebeurd in Helsinki. De onbetwiste smaakmaker van dit toernooi was de Amerikaanse atleet Carl Lewis: hij won vier gouden medailles en evenaarde daarmee de prestatie die zijn landgenoot Jesse Owens in Berlijn 1936 had geleverd. Bij de vrouwen was Valerie Brisco-Hooks de grote uitblinker, die zegevierde op de 200 meter, de 400 meter en de 4x400-estafette. Tienkamper Daley Thompson wist zijn titel te prolongeren en was pas de tweede atleet die daarin slaagde, na Bob Mathias.
