Some of the main contenders include • The winners of the 12 walk events in the Australian Junior T&F Championships • Tyler Jones, Kyle Swan and Clara Smith who all bettered the World Youth qualifying standard at the above champs • Chris Erickson who did a PB of 1:22:08 in taking 10th place in the IAAF Challenge event in Nomi, Japan • Ashleigh Resch who won the Girls 1 Mile walk at the USA National Indoor T&F Champs with a new US National Girls record of 7:00.33. Having analysed all the results, I am pleased to announce that Kyle Swan is my overall choice. I am sure that you will agree he is a worthy choice once you review my explanation. He came into the summer season with a PB of 46:50 and needed to improve to 44:15 or better to have any chance of World Youth Championships selection, but his form was well off that sort of time. He had carried an injury through the second half of 2014 and was struggling to get back into shape as the summer progressed.

I was quite surprised to see 63 walkers in action the week after the National Championships - this must be some sort of a record for this late in the season. Conditions were excellent and the races look to have been keenly contested. Thanks also to Terry Swan for the many fine photos, some of which I have used. See http://vrwc.org.au/coppermine/.

  • Heel and Toe 2013/2014 Number 19
    HEEL AND TOE ONLINE The official organ of the Victorian Race Walking Club 2013/2014 Number 19 4 February 2014 VRWC Preferred Supplier of Shoes, clothes and sporting accessories. Address: RUNNERS WORLD, 598 High Street, East Kew, Victoria (Melways 45 G4) Telephone: 03 9817 3503 Hours : Monday to Friday: 9:30am to 5:30pm Saturday: 9:00am to 3:00pm Website: http://www.runnersworld.com.aU Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Runners-World/235649459888840 TIM'S WALKER OF THE WEEK There were plenty of good performances at the Australian 20km Summer Championship meet in Hobart on Sunday but none better than those of Jemima Montag and Jesse Osborne who won the Junior 10km events so it was an easy task to decide on them as joint winners of this week's Walker of the Week. • 15 year old Jemima Montag was dominant in the Junior Women's race, going straight to the lead and passing through the 5km mark in just over 22 mins for a big 5km PB. She did understandably slow from there on but her finishing time of 47:00 was a 2:22 PB. It is a shame that she is too young for this year's World Junior Champs but she is eligible to contest the World Cup and, like Jesse, is an automatic selection as winner of the trial. • 19 year old Jesse also strode straight to the lead in the Junior Men's race and was on target for a sub-41 at the 6km mark before fading slightly in the warming morning conditions.
