Hypo-Meeting

The Hypo-Meeting is an annual athletics competition that takes place in the Mösle stadium in Götzis, Austria, held in the spring (late May, early June). The meeting began as a men's only contest in 1975 and a women's competition was added in 1981. In its history, a total of three world records have been set: 1980, 1982, and 2001.

Organised by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), it is one of the athletics meetings that make up the IAAF World Combined Events Challenge. Male and female athletes compete in the decathlon or heptathlon, respectively, and points scored at the Hypo-Meeting count towards a yearly total for the parent competition.
