The 2024 U.S. Olympic track and field trials resume Thursday at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon, following two rest days for the competitors.

Action will continue through Sunday evening, when the last events are held, and the final Olympic berths will be determined for the 2024 Paris Summer Games. Each day at least one final will be contested, but there will also be compelling heat races and semifinals in some marquee events.

Some huge stars are also set to hit the track for the first time at the 2024 Trials, including Tokyo medalists Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, Rai Benjamin and Keni Harrison. And America’s fastest man and woman – Noah Lyles and Sha’Carri Richardson – return to the track as each tries to qualify for a second individual event in Paris.

Here’s what’s on tap for the final four days of competition:

If you like finals, then this is the day to tune in. Gold medalist Katie Moon (née Nageotte) should be back on the field in the women's pole vault final, while men will be contending for berths in the high jump and triple jump before the men's distance runners take the track in the 5,000 meters.

The best female hurdlers return, and if all goes well in the heats and semifinals, that means one more opportunity to watch Keni Harrison in the 100-meter hurdles and Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone in the 400-meter hurdles. It also likely means one more chance to watch defending silver medalist Rai Benjamin in the men's 400 hurdles.
