1975 World Association of Veteran Athletes Championships
The first World Association of Veteran Athletes Championships were held in Toronto, Canada, from 11–16 August 1975. This was the first such championships for the newly created division of the sport of athletics for people over 40 years of age, now referred to as Masters athletics. With over 1,400 individual participants and 5,000 starts, this claimed to be the largest track and field meet ever held in North American to that point in time.
A full range of track and field events were held, along with a cross country race and a marathon.Results
