VRWC Fixture - 2013 Winter Season
Last update Monday 5 May 2013
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.

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.
