They have scorched the streets in highly competitive events and now the cream of the crop of the nation’s race walkers will clash in a highly competitive encounter when the Cavaliers Sports and Tour Club in association with the Half Mile Wismar Community Group stages the ‘Last Lap’ race-walk in Linden tomorrow morning.
Athletes will convene at the Four Corners, Wismar and proceed to the Five Corners on the other side of the river, in Mackenzie, for the finish. The race will bring the curtains down on the CSTC’S 11th Race Walk month of activities held under the theme ‘Preparing Race Walkers for Participation in the 2016 Olympics in Brazil’.
The walkers will compete for trophies, medals and other prizes donated by corporate Guyana and the top three finishers in several categories including male and female (seniors) juniors, veterans and differently able participants, will receive prizes and competitors must be at the starting line at 06:00 hours, before the start of the event half an hour later.
Meanwhile, plans are being finalized for the staging of the club’s annual Amerindian Heritage month 10k Race Walk around the National Park, Thomas Lands on Sunday September 14, 2014 at 06:30hrs. Lucrative prizes will be at stake.
