The biennial World Masters Championships were first held in 1975 and renamed the World Veterans Championships in 1979 following the formation of the WAVA (World Association of Veteran Athletes). In 2002 the WAVA changed to the WMA (World Masters Athletics) and, henceforth, championships will again be entitled World Masters Championships. In 1975 women's competitions were held in 10 year age bands, however changed to 5 year age bands (and reduced the minimum age to 35) in 1977. Combined events are scored using age-graded tables which yield higher scores than the standard IAAF tables. This compilation lists winners of the women's W35 (e.g. women age 35-39), W40 & W45 (formerly W0, W1A & W1B) age groups. Men's Winners are listed on a separate page as are winners of the World Masters Indoor Championships, Non-Stadia Championships, 100 Kilometres Championships and Mountain Running Championships.
