5000 meters at the NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships
This is a list of the NCAA Division I outdoor champions in the 5000 meters or its imperial equivalent 3 mile run. The imperial distance was contested until 1975, except during Olympic years starting in 1932. Metrication occurred in 1976, so all subsequent championships were at the metric distance. Hand timing was used until 1973, while starting in 1974 fully automatic timing was used. The women's race has been contested since 1982.
