VRWC Fixture - 2016 Winter Season
Last
update Friday 10 July 2016
The RaceWalking calendar in Australia is divided into two main seasons, Winter and Summer.
The Winter Season occurs between April and September and covers the Australian winter. Conditions are generally superb for road walking with mild winter temperatures, fast courses and lots of competition for all age groups.
The Summer Season occurs between October and March and coincides with the long hot Australian summer. The emphasis in on track walking and most races are over the shorter track distances. There is also a strong walking presence in the 'Interclub' Track Competition with all Athletics Teams fielding walkers in their regular competitions.
VRWC races are conducted in a traffic free environment on the Albert
Park Formula One Grand Prix service roads, Albert Park Reserve, Middle
Park.
Pre entry to be made available via internet or entering the previous week at the race entry desk
Walkers Note: We can only allocate Handicap Start Times to those walkers who have raced over that distance or a comparable distance during the last 12 months.

The Racewalking Australia Challenge is a Racewalking Australia club versus club competition. The points from the fastest competitor from each club in each race will be added and the club with the lowest points declared the winner. If a club fails to have a competitor finish in any category, that club will be awarded the same points as the highest scoring competitor. Master athletes will not be scored on their time but their age grading so all Master athletes must submit their age at entry time.
All monies raised on this day (from race fees, canteen takings and from donations) are forwarded to a charitable organisation each year.

The Racewalking Australia Challenge is a Racewalking Australia club versus club competition. The points from the fastest competitor from each club in each race will be added and the club with the lowest points declared the winner. If a club fails to have a competitor finish in any category, that club will be awarded the same points as the highest scoring competitor. Master athletes will not be scored on their time but their age grading so all Master athletes must submit their age at entry time.
All monies raised on this day (from race fees, canteen takings and from donations) are forwarded to a charitable organisation each year.
