We continue the annual publication of the lists provided with the support of the archive of "All-Athletics.com", with the following:

world list - 10.000m track walk U20 women

Only three Italian athletes are in the top 100 list, in which were considered only one performance per athlete:

Noemi Stella with the performance of  44:43.78 obtained in Eskilstuna (SWE) on July 16, 2015 is 5th

Eleonora Dominici with the performance of 46:21.49 obtained in Eskilstuna (SWE) on July 16, 2015 is 15th

Leads the list the Russian Klavdiya Afanasyeva with the performance of 43:36.88 obtained on the occasion of the victory in the European Championships Junior in Eskilstuna (SWE), last July 16, 2015, followed by teammates Olga Shargina with the performance of 44:01.08 and Mariya Losinova (44:07:44) who have completed the European podium.

In addition to that of Eskilstuna other race of great interest in the season was the first edition of the Youth Chinese Games in Fuzhou on October 24, 2015 with as many as 37 Chinese athletes with performances under 51:30.00 and obviously included in the first 100 athletes of the world list. Unfortunately we haven’t updated all the names, but we will do it as soon as possible.

It's very interesting to note that in the list of the top 100 athletes are represented 23 Countries (in 2014 are represented 24 Countries), and in this case the list is leaded by Cina with 37 athletes, followed by Russia (16) and Japan (9).

It's also interesting to note that to enter in the list of the top 100 athletes this year it was necessary to obtain a time less than 51:29:98, 4’47.03 faster than 2014 (56:17.05) obtained by Thi Ann Bui (VIE) (Hanoi, VIE - 12.8.2014).
