Racewalking Australia Postal Challenge Rules:

1. The Racewalking Australia Postal Challenge event is a virtual interstate meet whereby all Federation Race Walking Clubs from around Australia conduct the same programme of events and results from each state are then collated. 

2. It is a club-versus-club team’s competition with points being awarded within each race to the top finisher for each club.

2. Walkers may compete in more than one event on the day provided the events are held at different times. A walker cannot walk in two different age groups in a concurrent race.

3. Age is 'age on the day' for all walkers.

4. Masters athletes will not be scored on their time, but their age grading, so all Masters athletes must submit their age at entry time.
