Deaf world records in athletics are the best marks set in an event by a deaf person in the sport of athletics. The International Committee of Sports for the Deaf is responsible for ratification and it analyses each record before approving it. Records may be set in any continent and at any competition, providing that the correct measures are in place (such as wind-gauges) to allow for a verifiable and legal mark.
