43rd Lake Burley Griffin Race Walking Carnival, 7 June 2009, Canberra

The annual Lake Burley Griffin Carnival is held each June in Canberra, the capital of Australia. This is the main event for Racewalking Australia and has a strong team emphasis. The carnival this year saw 297 entries from 297 walkers, an all time record. There are Racewalking Australia championship events for age groups from Under 10 through to Masters.

The 20 mile race was held early on the Sunday morning on a tough hilly course around the lake while the other Championship events were held later on, commencing at 10:30AM. All events were road events.

Once again a Peter Waddell Memorial walk was held on the Saturday afternoon from Western Park. This informal tribute to Peter attracted a good number of walkers from all States and was a fitting remembrance to the driving force behind this Carnival.

Final results follow and include the progressive Brennen Points.
