The 1935 USA Indoor Track and Field Championships were organized by the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and served as the national championships in indoor track and field for the United States.
The men's edition was held at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York, and it took place February 23. The women's meet was held separately at the St. Louis Coliseum in St. Louis, Missouri, taking place March 22.[1][2]
At the championships, high schooler Helen Stephens upset pre-race favorite Stella Walsh in the 50 metres. Stephens had reportedly only began training ten days before the championships. About 3,500 spectators attended the women's meet with most coming to see Walsh run.[3][4][5]
