Athletics Australia maintains ranking lists for the major racewalking distances. You can check them out at https://www.athletics.com.au/results-records-toplists/toplists/.
These are very comprehensive ranking lists but do not necessarily capture all performances. I have taken the base AA ranking lists as a starting point and now work in parallel with my own unofficial ranking lists. These differ from the official AA lists in a number of ways
- I have extra performances from events like
Racewalking Australia races that may have slipped through the AA net
- I accept splits in major races (eg a 10km split from an Olympic 20km,
etc) provided they are officially published.
- I generally go a bit further down and have a lower
cutoff mark, thus including more performances overall.
My lists include All-Time rankings for the following walk categories
| Men: |
3000m track, 5000m
track, 10km,
20km, Half Marathon, 30km, 35km, Marathon and 50km |
| Women: |
3000m track, 5000m track, 10km, 20km, Half Marathon, 30km, 35km, Marathon and 50km |

If you wish to nominate a performance that is currently not acknowledged in the ranking lists, then send me the following details
If the result can be independantly verified and if the race meets the rigorous standards required for inclusion, it will be considered.
