To be considered as a “scoring event”, the following minimum number of “qualified walkers” must have taken part in the event: 4.2.1 Category B • For competitions held in Europe: 10 “qualified walkers” coming from at least 5 countries • For competitions outside Europe: 7 “qualified walkers” coming from at least 4 countries
25
4.2.2
Category C • For competitions held in Europe: 6 “qualified walkers” coming from at least 4 countries • For competitions outside Europe: 4 “qualified walkers” coming from at least 3 countries
4.3
For the purpose of clause 4.2, a “qualified walker” is defined as being: • • either ranked in the Top 50 of the previous year’s IAAF official performance list in the standard walking events (20km Road or 50km Road Men – 20km Road Women) or Top 8 finishers of the 2007 IAAF World Championships, 2008 IAAF World Race Walking Cup or 2008 Olympic Games
4.4
If an event cannot be considered as “scoring” (in accordance with clause 4.2), the points defined in clause 4.1 will nevertheless be awarded to the athletes having achieved the “A” standard for the 2009 World Championships in Berlin (20km Men: 1:22:30 – 50km Men: 3:58:00 – 20km Women: 1:33:30). In case of competitions held at an altitude of 1500m or over, the “B” standard shall be taken as reference (20km Men: 1:24:20 – 50km Men: 4:09:00 – 20km Women: 1:38:00). In order to be ranked, an athlete must participate in at least four events listed under 1.3. Athletes that are disqualified (DQ), will NOT be considered as having participated in that event. Although he may compete in as many competitions listed under 1.3 as he wishes, the athlete will be ranked only according to his best four scoring results. Any athlete achieving a new World Record (on track or road) will be awarded 4 bonus points in addition to the ones he will receive as a result of his finishing position. In the case of a tie for the ranking, this will be resolved in favour of the walker with the highest finishing position in any of his best 4 scoring events. In case of further tie(s), the other finishing positions will determine the ranking. If a tie cannot be broken, the prize money will be equally divided between the tied athletes. Challenge Final – Participation and Eligibility for Overall Prize Money The 2009 Race Walking Challenge Final will take place in Saransk (RUS) on 19 September. One men’s and one women’s race will be contested, both on road, over a distance of 10km.

The overall prize money shall be awarded only at the Challenge Final on the basis of the eligible athletes’ finishing positions.
