Athletics at the 2023 African Games – Women's 20 kilometres walk

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The women's 20 kilometres walk event at the 2023 African Games was held on 20 March 2024 in Accra, Ghana.[1][2] Due to officials error, some athletes only completed 19 kilometres of the course while others the whole distance. It was decided to use the placings at the 19 kilometre to decide medals.[3]
