02.01.2022 *** VIRTUAL RACEWALKING COMPS *** Hello walkers worldwide, hope you're well, safe, and able to continue practising your sport in some shape or form. An excellen...t incentive to keep up a level as close to racing fitness as we can whilst isolating, is the range of 'virtual' walking races springing up around the world. The first comp to get underway is the UK's National Fitness centre (Leeds) race series. Details of this can be accessed at https://nationalendurancecentre.co.uk/challenges Two of our members - Darcey Roberts and Dave Smyth - have already taken advantage of this initiative. Check it out - it provides a race result and ranking to aim for, adding a goal more substantial than 'keeping up my fitness.' Thanks to Tim Erickson for providing details in this week's 'Heel & Toe Online'. Good luck, and take care!

01.01.2022 Congratulations to kodi whom won gold at nsw state champs, unfortunately Owen was dq , but will be out on track ready for the next race. Great work boys we are super proud of you both.

01.01.2022 Random questions . What online app do people use to record their training walks ? Would anyone be interested if we had some sort of online walking event to keep some interaction happening?
