- The French Athletics Championships (French: Championnats de France d'athlétisme) is an annual outdoor track and field competition organised by the Fédération française d'athlétisme (FFA; French Athletics Federation), which serves as the French national championships for the sport. The three-day event is typically held in early or mid-summer and the venue varies on an annual basis. It is open to adults of all ages and is thus referred to as the senior or élite championships. The championships were first held in 1888 and were organised by the Union des Sociétés Françaises de Sports Athlétiques (USFSA; Union of French Athletics Sports Societies). The USFSA declined in favour of specialised national sports bodies early in the 20th century and FFA has organised the championships since 1921. The championships have been held every year since their inauguration with the exception of four inter-war years: 1915, 1916, 1940, and 1944. (en)
- Les Championnats de France d'athlétisme se disputent chaque année et consacrent les meilleurs athlètes français sur piste, en salle, sur route et en cross-country. Les disciplines sont toutes représentées, les catégories d'âge différenciées et le lieu où ils se déroulent change désormais chaque année, après avoir fort longtemps été organisés uniquement à Paris ou à Colombes.
