Notes: In 1925, there were two national championships held; the 08 Mar 1925 race was held by "FISA" and the 15 Mar 1925 race was held by "UISA." In 1935-1938, the national championships were replaced by a national criterium and technically were not national championships. Distances in lighter colors are estimates (1937 women's distance was reported as 1.1 km. 2008 men's distance was reported as 9.2 km and the women's distance was reported as 8.2 km).
