Athletics Race Walk, or race walking, is a long-distance athletic event. Although it is a foot race, it is different from running in that one foot must appear to be in contact with the ground at all times. Stride length is reduced, so to achieve competitive speeds, race walkers must attain cadence rates comparable to those achieved by Olympic400-metre runners and they must do so for hours at a time since the Olympic events are the 20 kilometer race walk and 50-kilometre race walk.
Athletics Race Walk is an Olympic athletics event with distances of 20 kilometers for both men and women and 50 kilometers for men only. Athletics Race Walk first appeared in the modern Olympics in 1904 as a half-mile walk in the 'all-rounder,' the precursor to the 10-event decathlon. In 1908, stand-alone 1,500m and 3,000m race walks were added, and excluding 1924 there has been at least one race walk (for men) in every Olympics since. The women's race walk became an Olympic event only in 1992, following years of active lobbying by female internationals. A World Cup in Athletics Race Walk is held biennially, and race walk events appear in the IAAF Athletics World Championships, the Commonwealth Games and the Pan American Games, among others.
