Parkside Athletic Club Mission

The PAC mission is “to promote race walking for competition and fitness.” PAC members are active in regional and national USATF organizations and in efforts to encourage people of all ages to participate in the sport of race walking. To download PAC membership form, click here: PACApplication.pdf An annual membership fee of $35 is assessed.

Because racewalking is a U.S. Track and Field sport with competitors attempting to set Masters' time records in various distances and age groups or college and open competitors working to qualify for national and international competition, race organization, promotion, and participation is crucial. In addition to members working to improve their own fitness level or competition performance, members also get involved at the level they can in supporting racewalk competitions.

Sometimes members choose to help at college and open competitions by serving as lap counters, recording split times, manning the water station or other volunteer efforts. Many members also compete in local, regional, or national events to strengthen the sport of racewalking, ensuring racewalks continue to be held.
