Wellington Masters
5000m Walk

The 5000m track walk is an event that has never appeared at the Olympics. Track walking as a whole has only made sporadic appearances at that level, with 3000m 3500m and 10000m distances appearing up to 1924. After that all walking events were held out of stadia, on road.

 It was held as a Centre Championship event for the first time (at least in recent years) in 2016/17 but has not been held since 2020/21.

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

Wellington Records as at 7 May 2023.
