1967 South American Championships in Athletics

The 1967 South American Championships in Athletics were held at the Pista de Atletismo Parque Chacabuco in Buenos Aires, Argentina, between 7 and 15 October.

Hel on a 6-lane cinder track, it required three-rounds of competition in some running events, the last time it happened at the South American Championships. It was also the last edition to allow three athletes from the same country in one event which enabled a clean sweep of medals. In addition, it was the first edition to feature women's 800 metres event.
