2024 World Athletics Race Walking Tour Explained

The 2024 World Athletics Race Walking Tour was the 21st edition of the annual international racewalking series organised by World Athletics.

US$160,000 of prize money was provided, with $80,000 for men and $80,000 for women including a first-place prize of $25,000. The winners were decided by their combined top three World Athletics Rankings performances from either the 20 km race walk (5km, 10km, 15km) or 35 km race walk (30km, 50km) event groups.[1] [2] [3]

At least two of the performances per athlete had to come from a 2024 Race Walking Tour event, while the third may come from any race walking competition on the World Athletics Calendar.
