60m Records

The 60m is a sprint distance rarely contested outdoors by senior athletes. Since its removal from the Olympic programme after 1904, senior athletes will only compete over the distance at the highest level in the biennial IAAF World Indoor Championships.

To be valid for an outdoor record (only applicable in Oceania), a time must be run with a wind reading of +2.0 or less.

Where Centre records are better performances than National or World records, this likely indicates that the athlete either failed to apply for the record within the application window or was unable to meet the stricter paperwork requirements. More recent records could still be in the processing stage at World or National level.

For 60m, electronic times are required. Some historical times that predate this requirement may be hand-times (h). Where it is not readily evident that a historical hand timed record or electronic time is faster, both will be listed. [I believe any time given with a single decimal is hand timed but unless marked it is not explicitly expressed.]

Note: Athletes move. Wellington records applicable to athletes registered to Wellington at time of performance. Island championship records applicable to athletes registered to that island at time of performance. NZ records applicable to athletes registered appropriately to NZMA at time of performance. Oceania championship records applicable to athletes registered to OMA at time of performance. World records quote national affiliation of athlete at time of performance.

World Masters only maintain World Records for the Indoor 60m and not for the Outdoor 60m, which is event mainly specific to Oceania.

Prior to the September 2016 agreement on shared membership between Athletics New Zealand and New Zealand Masters Athletics, only those masters athletes who had joined NZMA were eligible to claim records. Now domestic Masters Records can be claimed by both ANZ and NZMA members.
