Athletics competitions at the 1938 Bolivarian Games
were held at the Estadio El Campín in Bogotá,

A detailed history of the early editions of the Bolivarian Games between 1938
and 1989 was published in a book written (in Spanish) by José Gamarra
Zorrilla, former president of the Bolivian Olympic Committee, and first
president (1976-1982) of ODESUR.  Gold medal winners from Ecuador were published by the Comité Olímpico Ecuatoriano.

A total of 27 events were contested, 23 by men and 4 by women.  Unusually,
