NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships – Men's 5,000 meter run
This is a list of the NCAA outdoor champions in the 3 mile run until 1975, and the metric 5000 meters being contested in Olympic years starting in 1932. Metrication occurred in 1976, so all subsequent championships were at the metric distance. Hand timing was used until 1973, starting in 1974 fully automatic timing was used.
