List of Panamerican records in athletics

Panamerican records in athletics are the best marks set in an athletics event by an athlete who competes for a member federation of the APA. APA doesn't maintain an official list for such performances. All bests shown on this list are tracked by statisticians not officially sanctioned by the governing body.

For these Athletes World Athletics maintain official Area Records, in this case North America, Central America and Caribbean Records and South American Records.
