Oceania Masters
Medley Relay

The medley relay is a mixed distance relay made-up of four runners. The distance covered by the team is 1600m, comprised of 800m, 400m, 200m and 200m. Whether the relay is run 8-4-2-2 or 2-2-4-8 depends on the individual event.

It was contested just once at the Olympics,  in 1908, as a 2-2-4-8. and was replaced by the 4x400m from 1912.

At the Oceania Champs each country puts together a team to compete. On occasion, such as in 2014 when pacific island representation was low, combination teams are allowed to improve the competition.

The sum of the ages of the runners determines which of the three age-bands the team will contest.

The men compete in age-bands of:

  • 150 to 199 years
  • 200 to 239 years
  • 240 years plus

The women compete in age-bands of:

  • 150 to 194 years

  • 195 to 229 years
  • 230 years plus

These are the current age bands; earlier championships did not necessarily use the exact same bands.

National association holding athlete registration at time of competition is indicated by country code:

  • AU - Australia

  • CK - Cook Islands

  • FJ - Fiji

  • FP - French Polynesia

  • NC - New Caledonia

  • NFK - Norfolk Island

  • NMI - Northern Mariana Islands

  • NZ - New Zealand

  • PNG - Papua New Guinea

  • SAM - Samoa

  • SOL - Solomon Islands

  • TO - Tonga

  • WF -Wallis & Futuna

Performances by guest athletes from outside Oceania are marked [IE].
