03/09/2022   Gdansk (POL): 55th Race Walking and Nordic Walking Festival






 

 

 

In the wake of the successes in Eugene, Oregon 2022, the activity of race walking does not stop in Poland.
 
The 55th Race Walking and Nordic Walking Festival was held in Gdansk (POL) on Saturday, September 3, which was combined with the Polish Post Office Cup.
The event, usually reserved for Polish walking teams, saw the presence this year of three teams from Lithuania (Interwalk Lithuania and Drusinnkai Litwa and Bristonas Litwa) who embellished the Meeting.
 
The results obviously suffered from the fact that we are at the end of the competitive season, but participation, especially in the youth categories was interesting.
