to return to VRWC main page. 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.

VMA Competitors should provide their own lap scorer.
Note
that, due to the Australian Motor Racing
Grand Prix event in late March, we are unable to schedule any races at
Middle Park from early February until late April. This is an ongoing
issue which restricts our summer season program.
