NZ National Masters
3000m

The 3000m is an unusual event as it was not included as part of the National Championship from 1981 to 2016. Athletics NZ have recently reinstated it as a separate event. It has not been contested at the Olympics since 1924 for men. It was an Olympic distance for women from 1984 to 1992 and was dropped when women's distances were standardised to be the same as for men.

The standard programme developed for 2014 places the event on Friday afternoon. Previously it was the last event on the Sunday.

Performances by guest athletes from outside the North Island are marked [IE].
