IAAF Race Walking Challenge

General Principles

Starting in 2003, the IAAF shall organize every year the IAAF Race Walking Challenge.

For each year, it will consist of qualified scoring events contested at competitions that have been designated as part of the IAAF Race Walking Challenge.

All events of the IAAF World Championships in Athletics (which take place in odd years), of the IAAF Race Walking Cup (in even years) will be part of the IAAF Race Walking Challenge.

In addition, the IAAF Council will nominate each year, from six to eight further competitions (not more than one per country and a maximum of four European competitions) based on the proposals of the IAAF Race Walking Committee.
