What’s the World Athletics Championships?

The Championships happen every two years and feature everything from 100‑metre sprints to marathon runs, high jumps to hammer throws. Athletes compete for medals, national pride and, often, a spot on the next Olympic team. The latest edition saw stunning performances in the 400 m hurdles and a surprise gold for an under‑dog in the women’s pole vault.
