In 1984 (the first women's Olympic marathon) Gabriela Andersen-Scheiss who was severely dehydrated weaved into the stadium, and ended up falling over the finish line into the arms of waiting medical personnel.  (I was there!).\n\nAt the 1996 Boston Marathon, winner Uta Pippig had her period and diarrhea, and wiped the exodus of both from her legs during the entire race.  She won!\n\nSorry, never heard your story about the 1992 marathon.  Runners take bathroom breaks all the time so it wouldn't surprise me!

Very difficult to break it down to one single event so, I'll give you my top 10 in order of peference:\n\n10.  Edwin Moses, who won gold medals in the 400-meter hurdles at the 1976 and 1984 Summer Olympics. Between 1977 and 1987, Moses won 107 consecutive finals (122 consecutive races) and set the world record  four times.\n\n9. Javier Sotomayor, who is the only man to exceed 8 foot in the (8'-½ in,2.45 meters ) in the High Jump, when  he set the world record on July 23, 1993 in Salamanca, Spain.\n\n8. Carl Lewis, matching Jesse Owens mark of 4 gold medals in a single Olympiad, the '84 Los Angeles Games.\n\n7. Carl Lewis, matching Al Oerter's feat of winning 4 gold medals for the same event in 4 consecutive Olympiads, when he won the long jump in the '96 Atlanta Games, matching his efforts in '84, '88 and '92.\n\n6. Michael Johnson winning both the 200m and 400m races in a single Olympics, during the 1996 Atlanta Games.  He easily captured the 400m Olympic title with a time of 43.49 beating Roger Black of Great Britain by almost one second. At the 200m final, Johnson achieved a peak speed of over 40 km/h (25 mph), and finished the race in 19.32 shattering the world record by a third of a second.\n\n5.  Al Oerter became the first track and field athlete to win consecutive gold medals for the same event over the period of FOUR Olympiads. Oerter, won the Discus thow at the '56, '60, '64 & '68 Olmpics.\n\n4. Jim Thorpe's perfomance at the 1912 Stockholm Olympics. Along with the decathlon and pentathlon, Thorpe contested the long jump and high jump as well, but his first event scheduled was the pentathlon. Thorpe was the class of the field, winning four events. He placed only third in the javelin, an event he had never done before 1912. \n\nThe same day he won the pentathlon gold, Thorpe qualified for the high-jump final. In that final, he placed fourth, and took seventh place in the long jump. Thorpe's final event was the decathlon, where tough competition from local favorite Hugo Wieslander was expected. But Wieslander was no match for Thorpe either, finishing some 700 points behind. Thorpe placed in the top four of all ten events.\n\n3. Jessie Owens. But not for winning the 4 Olympic Gold Medals in the 36' Games, but for an extraordinary day that took place a year earlier. In a span of 45 minutes on May 25, 1935 at the Big Ten Championships in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Owns tied the record for the 100 yard dash, set world records in the long jump, 220 yard dash, and 220 yard low hurdles. With the 220 times bettering the records for 200 meter equivalents, Owns set or tied SIX World record in less thane ONE hour.\n\n2. On May 6, 1954 during a meet between British AAA and Oxford University, Roger Bannister broke the 4-minute barrier;  with a time of 3 min 59.4. \n\n1. Bob Beamon's World record jump at the 1968 Mexico City Olymipic Games. Although Beamon was a favorite, his jump was completely unexpected.  From 1935 to 1968, the long jump world record had increased only 8.25" from 26' 8'-1/2 to 27' 4-3/4. With a single jump, Beamon added nearly 22" to the record in a single day.

Some folks aren't READING your question.\n\nThe Record for most MEDALS in one games belongs to Michael Phelps of the US who won 8 medals (6 gold, 2 bronze; 4 individual gold, 2, relay gold, one individual bronze and one relay bronze). This record is lessened a bit by the fact that Phelps swam in the preliminary heat but not the final of the 4x100 m medley relay, yet because of rule changes, is still awarded a medal.)\n\nThis tied the Record of 8 medals by Alexander Dityatin, a gymnast in the 1980 Olympics in Moscow, when he won 3 golds, 4 silver and one bronze medal. But this was a boycotted games, so the impact of that feat was also lessened\n\nMark Spitz won 7 GOLD medals at the 1972 Munich Olympic games (5 individual and 2 relay medals), all in WR time, so I'd still say that Spitz's effort was still superior if no longer the "record"

I'm sure it would be impossible to pin down the first competitive women's athletic event in the world. \n\nA couple of milestones, though: \n1921: Monte Carlo hosts "the first true international meeting for women... Five countries were represented in eleven events"\n1928: Women's events are first included in the Olympics

Mia Hamm definately first followed by someone like Birget Prinz. The rest I would have to research.

MODERN OLYMPIC GAMES:\n\nOfficialy, it was only at Paris 1900 that women were allowed to participate. The first female winner was Charlotte Cooper (Great Britain). She won in singles tennis. The first women competitors in the Modern Olympic Games of 1900 in chronological order were: Helen de Pourtales (first female gold medalist with Charlotte Cooper), Switzerland (Yachting), Elvira Guerra, France (Equestrianism), Mme Ohnier and Madame Depres, France (Croquet), Charlotte Cooper, Great Britain (Tennis), Margaret Abbott, USA (Golf), Madame Maison, France (Ballooning).\n\nBut, in the first modern Olympics of 1896, there was an unofficial competitor in the marathon, a poor Greek woman who became known as 'Melpomene'. Melpomene’s real name was Stamati Revithi. She was not allowed to compete in the mens race, but ran by herself the next day. The final lap was completed outside the stadium as she was refused entry to the stadium. After her marathon run, athletics officials couldn’t remember her name so they labelled her 'Melpomene', who is the Greek muse of Tragedy. Ballooning, croquet and golf (1900) were once Olympic events in which women competed.\n\n\nANCIENT OLYMPIC GAMES:\n\nMarried women were barred, but prostitutes or virgins were allowed to spectate. Kallipateria was the first female Olympic boxing coach in 440 BC. The first female Olympic champion was a Spartan princess called Kynisca, in 392 BC. She was also the first woman to become a champion horse trainer when her horses and chariot competed and won in the Ancient Olympic Games. Women were originally the prizes in mens Ancient Olympic chariot races.
