Thailand – traditionally dominant in the competition – again had the highest number of gold medals in athletics, winning fourteen events and taking 32 medals overall. The host nation Indonesia was a close second with thirteen golds and won the most medals with a total of 36. Vietnam were a clear third with nine golds and 32 medals. Seven of the eleven competing nations reached the medal table.

The 26th edition saw athletes continue successful streaks at the competition: Filipino Rene Herrera won his fifth consecutive men's steeplechase gold medal, his teammate Marestella Torres won her fourth long jump title (with the second longest jump in Asia so far in 2011), and Theerayut Philakong of Thailand won a fourth straight title in the men's triple jump. Thai athlete Wassana Winatho and James Wong Tuck Yim of Singapore each won their tenth SEA Games gold medals of their careers at the competition.

Indonesia's Triyaningsih demonstrated her regional dominance in women's long-distance running: after two 5000/10,000 m doubles in 2007 and 2009, she again won both track events and also the women's marathon race. Agus Prayogo won a 5000/10,000 m men's double and Yahuza's win in the men's marathon made it a long-distance sweep for Indonesia. Two other athletes completed event doubles: Franklin Burumi of Indonesia won the 100 and 200 metres finals, while Truong Thanh Hang repeated her 800/1500 metres double for a third consecutive edition.

The final runner on Malaysia's 4×400 m relay team, Muhamad Yunus Lasaleh, tested positive for banned substances at the competition.
