Walk Rankings

I know you were anxiously awaiting these.

MEN - 20k
Australia's #2 Jared Tallent, a rare generalist who competes at both the 20k and 50k distances, put up the year's fastest time at his national championships a week ago. #4 Stanislav Emelyanov won Saturday's Russian Championships. Francisco Fernández is in some hot water for possession of banned drugs and will likely be stricken from the rankings soon.
