Racewalking - Slogans

Here is a collection of race walking slogans as heard on the Racewalk List. It started to get out of hand but I'll list them anyway. Now mysite won't pass any of the parental filtering software ;-(.

It started out as a way to get the High School kids interedted in race walking and the type of t-shirts with slogs that are typicially seen at cross-country meets.

Enjoy! And, if you would like a slogan added e-mail and and I'll add it.
