Running Events have been separated from Road Walking events
Road Running and Road Walking events have been separated to ensure clarity for both groups of athletes (since many - but not all - events overlap).
So, ONLY Road Walking Events are available from this page.
If you were possibly looking for Road Running events, you will find them here.
Generally, walkers are welcome at running events (although not every running event can necessarily manage to arrange walking referees). Some events are only for walkers (for example the various Makulu walks). Some road running championship events are only for elite road runners.
Road Walking Rules
- A walker must retain contact with the ground at all times, i.e. no “lifting” is allowed.
- Any walker whose action looks suspect will be given a caution.
- A competitor will automatically be disqualified after the third caution.
- A judge may immediately disqualify a walker without caution for blatant running.
- The back leg should fully extend and the knee should be locked before the next step.
- Any walker whose knees are covered will not be considered for prizes. The only exception to this rule is that in very cold weather judges will accept tight-fitting “Lycra” leggings.
- A walker must wear the “W” identification both on the front and back of the vest. Walkers not wearing the identification in running events will be regarded as runners.
