context_page_description: The 2002 Ibero-American Championships in Athletics was the tenth edition of the international athletics competition between Ibero-American nations which was held at the Estadio Cementos Progreso in Ciudad de Guatemala, Guatemala on 11 and 12 May. A total of 328 athletes participated in the 44-event programme. The 3000 metres was introduced for both men and women, replacing the longer 10,000 metres event.
  Following on from the success of the 2001 Central American and Caribbean Championships in Athletics and 2001 Central American Games, Guatemala hosted the Ibero-American Championships for the first time. The competition was a factor for selection for the Americas team in the 2002 IAAF World Cup. Cuba, Spain and Portugal all sent small delegations to the competition, which was held at an altitude of 1402 m – a factor which raised performances in the sprints and jumps.
  Brazil topped the medal table for the second time running, taking 38 medals from the events. Despite its reduced numbers, Cuba placed second as its athletes won eight events and 16 medals overall.

  † Note: The medal table in the official 2010 report by RFEA incorrectly lists Argentina as having won a silver medal in the women's section. It also states that Venezuela gained one more men's bronze medal than it did (José Carabalí had the same 200 m time as the bronze medallist but was ranked fourth).
