Notes
| Glen Housman's time of 14:53.59 was not ratified as a world record due to an electronic timing error. | Anastasiia Kirpichnikova initially represented Russia, before switching her sporting citizenship to France in April 2023. The attributed nation indicates which team she was representing at the time.
