http://www.racewalk.com/HowTo/Introduction.asp

Extractions: When people approach me to teach them to race walk, they usually fit within one of four broad categories: injured runners looking for an alternative to the wear and tear of running, experienced runners looking for a new sport that provides greater competitive opportunities, fitness walkers looking to get fitter and faster, or non-athletes eager to immediately get off the couch and start a fitness program. Of the four groups, the last actually has the mental advantage. People in the first three groups often approach race walking technique with predetermined ideas of how fast they should be walking. Ask any runner who has tried race walking and not continued with it, and he or she will tell you: race walking is difficult! While difficult is a very vague term, it reflects the fact that the sport takes a much greater degree of sustained focus and concentration on technical details than running. Nevertheless, once basic technique is mastered, race walking is actually an easier sport to progress within because competitors avoid the injuries that continually plague runners. Do As I Say

http://www.athleticscholarships.net/athletics-race-walking.htm

Extractions: Although it may look easy, Race Walking, an Olympic sport, is in reality very difficult. Race Walking is a long distance footrace in which the athletes must walk and not run. In Race Walking, there is a rule known as the “Straight Leg Rule”, which means, the moment the leading foot touches the ground and until the leg passes under the center of the body, the knee is not allowed to bend. Athletes are penalized for bending their knees as their knee passes under the body or when one of their feet are not touching the ground; which is why form and technique is very important in this sport. Judges who watch every walker to determine whether they are to be disqualified or not. There are usually about 9 or 10 judges that participate in each event. These judges judge the race with the naked eye, as video judging is not accepted in the race. They hold up paddles that would have symbols that mean “Loss of Contact (of the road)” and “Bent Knee”. These judges also send out a warning card that the main judge, or Chief Judge would receive these warning cards and when a race walker receives three warning cards from three different judges, that racer is disqualified. Due to the tough rules that are put onto the racers brings such controversy and disappointment to some competitors. In the 2000 Sydney Olympics, Mexico’s Bernardo Segura would be racer to experience such disappointment. The moment he finished the race into the Olympic Stadium to the finish line, he thought he took 1st place, when in fact he was unaware of the fact that he was issued his third and final red flag for his “loss of contact” to the ground, disqualifying him from the race. This was good news to the 2nd place racer, Poland’s Robert Korzeniowski, who then took 1st place. 2nd Place was Noe Hernandez from Mexico, and Vladimir Andreyev from Russia.

Racewalk West Head Coach and UBC Athletics The 2007/2008 Track season saw Racewalk West head coach Gerry Dragomir appointed as the Racewalk Coach for the University of the British Columbia Athletics team. Working closley with UBC Thunderbirds head coach Marek Jedzejek, Gerry was brought in to work with a very talented group of athletes who make up the most successful single event on the UBC Athletics team. The 2007/2008 season saw UBC dominate the NAIA Athletics Chamionships on both the Women's and Men's side of the racewalk event. The 2008/2009 season looks to be even better as a couple of new faces on the UBC Track team open the possiblity of a sweep of the Racewalk medals on both the Women's and Men's sides this year.

But race walkers - with their arms pumping, hips swiveling and legs barely restraining themselves from breaking into a trot - know what they're doing. These long-distance striders are constantly pushing the envelope, moving as fast as they can while maintaining legal walking form. Few objects in Olympic track and field are more scrutinized than race walkers' legs and feet. Sharp-eyed race walking officials are constantly looking out for "lifting" violations, i.e., walkers who cross the line into running.
