The marathon trials were held on February 3, 2024, in Orlando, Florida.[2][3][4] During the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, track and field events will be held between Thursday, August 1 and Sunday, August 11 with competition beginning each day at 4 am. ET.[5]

The results of the event determined qualification for the American Olympic team at the 2024 Summer Olympics, to be held in Paris.[6] Provided they had achieved the Olympic standard or are in the World Athletics ranking quota, the top three athletes in each event gained a place on the Olympic team.[7]

In the event that a leading athlete did not hold the standard, or an athlete withdrew, the next highest finishing athlete with the standard was selected instead. USA Track and Field announced their Olympic roster based on United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee and Team USA guidelines.[8]

The August 26–31 2024 World Athletics U20 Championships in Lima, Peru will be selected from Team USA earned at the 2024 USATF U20 Outdoor Championships on June 12-13, 2024.[9][10]

On July 9, 2024, USA Track and Field selected the 120 athletes that would compete the U.S. Olympic Team.[11]
