About
First off, race walking a very demanding sport. Race walking is continuing to grow in popularity here in the US and around the world. It is included within the sport of Athletics (other sports include track and field, race walking and long distance running). The national governing body of the sport of Athletics in the United States is the USA Track & Field (USATF).
This website’s goal is to increase the awareness for race walking, covering news and trends in this sport. My hope is that our readers will gain a better appreciation of the demands of this sport, as well as the immense health benefits us ‘walkers’ get from incorporating it into our lives.
