HK Masters Athletics Records
This is unofficial record of the best performances by Hong Kong masters athletes over 35 years old. Such records are not supposed to be endorsed by HKAAA.

1) Only those road races/track & field c/ships with clearly defined 5-year-old age groups (i.e., 35-39, 40-45.......till 100+) in line with AMA/WMA will be accepted. For example, if you attend a race (say a 10,000mW) with only broad masters age groups (e.g. 35-49 as one single age category), your results will not be counted even though you have outperformed the existing masters records at your age group.
2) The results of the following meets will be automatically taken into consideration when compiling the records:
- Asia Masters Athletics Championships;
- World Masters Athletics Championships (Indoor and Outdoor).
