Officiating

Officiating

Race Walking has been a discipline within Athletics (Track & Field, Long Distance Running & Race Walking) for more than 100 years. As one of three “separate” disciplines, the race walk may be included in track and field competitions and is also held as long-distance events. Too often the event’s uniqueness has kept officiating to a small number of specialists. People think it is difficult to judge. It is not. This page links to the resources necessary to learn how to be a race walk judge and official. Keep in mind throughout these explanations, that race walking is not running, and it is not normal walking; it is a prescribed technique with different, yet similar and varying aspects of both.
