At the end of June, I shall be meeting the A.A.A. of E. Championships
Secretary to discuss the distances and entry standards for future walking
events in the A.A.A. of E. track and field championships indoor and out at
all age groups.

This has been discussed here previously in a general sort of way, but the
matter has now become particular. I have written to various people with
requests to them to circulate my enquiry; if you have not received a bit of
paper, my apologies, but I have done my best to cover the field.

If you want to put your spoke in, feel free to send an E-mail to
Peter.Cassidy@... setting out your preferences for distances and
entry standards, indoor and out for Seniors, U/23s and Juniors, U/17s and
U/15s. (Note that, although there are at present no indoor U/15
championships, there may be in the future.) Please also feel free to ask
anyone else to respond; all views are welcome. You might note, however, that
the dream previously expressed by some people for a 20k starting and
finishing on the track is not likely to be fulfilled!

Best wishes - and don't forget to enter!

Peter Cassidy
