You may be familiar with the wonderful Australian Athletics historical website maintained by Peter Hamilton, David Tarbottom, Paul Jenes and Fletcher McEwen. See http://athletics.possumbility.com/. Peter Hamilton has been busy adding all the Australian racewalk championship results, a long project that is finally now complete. Check it out at http://athletics.possumbility.com/aust_walk/index.htm.

Here are a number of assorted articles that I have written over the years, focusing on particular championships.

And now onto the full listing of all carnival results. Some comments:

  • The LBG Carnival was first run in 1967 and has been held every year since. It is held in Canberra each June on the Queens Birthday long weekend. If not for the reporting efforts of the late Peter Waddell, many of the older results would be lost to time.
  • The Main Federation Carnival  (now called the second Federation Carnival) was first contested in 1923 and is still going strong.It was a standalone carnival until 2007 (apart from the occasional instance when AA and RWA combined). Since 2008, it has been held in conjunction with the Australian Winter Roadwalk Championships. Initially, it was a single event carnival, contesting either the Glover Shield (7 Miles) or the Alexander Cup (50km) for men. Over the years, additional team categories were added (Robinson Shield, Lorna Carrington Shield, Norm Goble Shield, Claude Knight Shield and Jacobson Shield) to bring the total to 6. In 2006, the carnival was enhanced in scope to add teams categories for younger age groups, to take the number of teams events to 12.
  • The Postal Challenge has been run since 2005 and is held in July.
  • The RWA 100km Championships have been held since 2005 and are hosted by the Australian Centurions in April each year.
  • The RWA Women's 50km Championship were held in conjunction with the Victorian 50km championships each September from 2011 till 2016. An Australian women's 50km championship was introduced in 2017 so the VRWC did not schedule any further RWA 50km championships for women.
