New Zealand competed at the 2005 World Championships in Athletics held in Helsinki, Finland. They won one medal, a silver, which was won by Valerie Vili (now Valerie Adams) in the shot put. Vili originally won the bronze medal, but was upgraded to silver after original gold medallist Nadzeya Ostapchuk subsequently failed a drug test.[1] They placed 26th on the medal table.[2]
