Notes

1. Sudanese-born Eisa Mohammed was a member of the Athlete Refugee Team in 2022 and 2024; World Athletics accepted at least his 2022 time as a Sudanese record.
2. Lombard's time was never ratified as an Irish record as he admitted to doping in August of that year.
3. Abdirahman ran a personal best of 27:16.99 on 8 June 2008, after he became a U.S. citizen in 2000. ^[25]
4. This record is rumored to be one lap short (9600m).(R2)
5. Accepted by World Athletics, but not by the Iranian athletic federation; Abootorabi transferred from Iran to Sweden on 13 June 2022, a month after this record. ^[33]
6. World Athletics lists Cuba's time of 28:48.96 as the Cuban national record, but by mistake also has a personal best for the Cuban runner Luis Medina of 28:18.16, run on 25 July 1975 at the Pre-Olympic track and field meet in Montreal.(R1) ^[36] Medina was not there and this was instead the time run by Luis Hernández from Mexico.
7. Accepted by World Athletics, but not ratified by the Mauritius Athletics Association
8. Not listed by World Athletics as a Bermudan result nor ratified by the BNAA.
9. Ratified by the HKAAA, but not accepted nor listed by World athletics, which as of August 2014 considers Gi's 30:53.6 Hong Kong's national record
10. Although officially ratified, Samuelu's time was achieved in a 10k road race.
11. World Athletics has a typo in the entry for Iulia Olteanu, giving her a what would be national record time of 31:00.25 instead of the actual 32:00.25 for her 10,000m race on 15 June 1996 in La Celle-Saint-Cloud. (R3)
12. 謝千鶴, also romanized as Xie Qianhe
13. ratified by AAMC; not recognized by World Athletics
