Olympic competitions are already underway, and now it's time for the world's best runners, throwers and jumpers to compete in Paris. 

Hundreds of athletes will take to the field to compete in 48 events, most of them held at the iconic Stade de France, the country's largest stadium.

Track and field events kick off later than most other Olympic events, beginning on Aug. 1, with medal events each day until Aug. 11. 

At the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, the United States team led the way with 26 total medals, followed by Kenya with 10 and Poland and Jamaica with nine. 

Team USA is highly anticipated to medal in many events again, including the men's and women's 100m sprint. Noah Lyles and Sha'Carri Richardson will each be looking for their first Olympic gold.

The women's 200m field will also be incredibly competitive, as Team USA's Gabby Thomas and Jamaica's Shericka Jackson have the potential to break a world record.

Sweden's Armand Duplantis hopes to defend his Olympic title and set a new world record in men's pole vault, while the U.S.'s Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone looks to dominate in the women's 400m hurdles. 

In the men's 400m relay, Quincy Wilson will make history as the youngest male competitor in U.S. Olympic track history at just 16 years old.

Ryan Crouser is also hoping to continue his Olympic dominance in shotput, winning his third gold medal. 

There are so many events and storylines to look forward to in track and field. Here is everything you need to know about the Paris Olympics track and field schedule, including TV and streaming options for events.
