IAAF = IAAF World Record; IAAF-J = IAAF World Junior Record; W = Unratified World Best; WO = World best in women-only race WJ = Unratified World Junior Best; WY = Unratified World Youth (under-18) Best; W35 = World (Masters) over-35 best;
W40 = World (Masters) over-40 best
AFR = Africa; ASI = Asia; C = Commonwealth; CAC = Central America & Caribbean (includes the countries with borders to Caribbean though not the USA); EUR = Europe; NAM = North America; OCE = Oceania; SAM = South America
NOTES
This section shows world, area, Commonwealth and age records (where known) for all events on the world record lists shown under IAAF rules 261 (world records) & 262 (world junior records)
A = made at altitude of 1000m or higher; a = aided road course according to IAAF rule 260.28 (separation between start and finish points more than 50% of race distance or the decrease in elevation greater than one in a thousand; South America do recognise additional marks in this category); ª = awaiting ratification but otherwise valid; h = hand timing; ! = timing by photo-electric cell; # =
not officially ratified; ✕ = unratified due to no doping control; ⚤ = mixed race (men and women together)
♀ = women-only race (Shown for North America as the USA keep separate records in this category); ⌚ = not timed officially Where relevant, the pace is given for world record performances. Where known, the time given is that of the runner who set the
record, rather than the pacemaker
From 1998, IAAF Rule 260.18a (formerly 260.6a) was revised to allow world records to be set at a facility “with or without a roof” (in other words, indoors or outdoors); Accordingly, indoor marks superior to outdoor records and set since 1998 are listed on these
pages in addition to outdoor bests
Included are the individual road events which were given world record status from January 1, 2004. These feature many unratified, unofficial and unconfirmed marks for three main reasons. Firstly, most of the IAAFʼs area federations have not yet established records at these events. Second, several of the worldʼs major long distance races do not take official times en-route for runners and finally – though the final distance not be regarded as aided (see note above) – the intermediate distance may well be. It should
also be noted that some federations have ratified road records even though the marks were set on courses such as Boston which do not fulfill IAAF criteria. Any comments and amendments to these records will be gratefully received by the editor. The following websites have been references for the area records: Africa: www.webcaa.org; Asia: athleticsasia.org; Europe: www.european-athletics.org, they do not recognise many menʼs road marks; South America: www.consudatle.org; United States:
www.usatf.org; North/Central American & Caribbean: www.athleticsnacac.org – though not updated since 2011; Central America & Caribbean: www.athlecac.org – though not updated since 2008. For Oceania, www.athletics-oceania.com did not
publish a record list as at June 21, 2013, so the marks listed here are the best legitimate marks known by the editor

∗ The birthdate of Kenneth (Kiprop) Kipkemoi KEN was misreported as August 5, 1994 but is apparently August 2, 1984, so his 59:11 Half Marathon (den Haag, 11 Mar 12) is not shown here as a world junior best. Similarly Dennis (Kipruto) Kimetto (Koech) KEN was variously reported to have been born on November 13, 1993 or January 22, 1994, but the compiler understands that January 22, 1984 is his correct birthdate so his 59:14 Half Marathon (Berlin, 1 Apr 12) should also not be regarded as a world junior best
