It was the last championships to have been held in the month of December, with all future editions having been held from January through April as of 2024. As a result of this scheduling change, there was no indoor national championships in 1912. The meeting was highlighted by the two miles, which was won by George Bonhag as he began to pull away after splitting the mile in 4:36.
