La competizione del decathlon di atletica leggera ai Giochi della VIII Olimpiade si tenne i giorni 11 e 12 luglio 1924 allo Stadio di Colombes a Parigi.

Risultati Ancora secondo dopo otto gare dietro ad Emerson Norton, Osborn emerge alla fine facendo meglio del connazionale nel giavellotto (+ 4,4 metri) e distanziandolo nettamente nei 1500 finali (-48 secondi!). Grazie anche all'eccellente prova nel salto in alto, di cui è specialista (1,97), Osborn stabilisce anche il nuovo record mondiale. 100 metri piani + 100m piani Pos.AtletaTempoPunti 1 Harold Osborn11"2857,2 2 Constant Bucher11"4809,6 Enrique Thompson11"4809,6 Ernst Gerspach11"4809,6 Gabriel Sempé11"4809,6 Gvido Jekals11"4809,6 Harry de Keijser11"4809,6 8 Adolf Meier11"6762,0 Adolfo Contoli11"6762,0 Aleksander Klumberg11"6762,0 Donald Slack11"6762,0 Ernest Sutherland11"6762,0 Elemér Somfay11"6762,0 Emerson Norton11"6762,0 Harry Frieda11"6762,0 Helge Jansson11"6762,0 Tokushige Noto11"6762,0 Edmond Médécin11"6762,0 Édouard Armand11"6762,0 20 Antoni Cejzik11"8714,4 Dennis Duigan11"8714,4 Elmar Rähn11"8714,4 Eugen Uuemaa11"8714,4 Josse Ruth11"8714,4 Paavo Yrjölä11"8714,4 Peroslav Ferković11"8714,4 Valter Ever11"8714,4 Bill Shanahan11"8714,4 Otto Anderson11"8714,4 30 Antti Huusari12"0666,8 Bertil Fastén12"0666,8 Iivari Yrjölä12"0666,8 33 Evert Nilsson12"2619,2 Stelios Benardis12"2619,2 35 Ðuro Gašpar12"6524,0 36 Percy Spark12"8476,4 Salto in lungo
