INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana — USATF announced the roster for the 2022 World Athletics Race Walking Team Championships set to take place March 3-5 in Muscat, Oman. Team USATF will send 16 race walkers, with Olympians Nick Christie and Robyn Stevens highlighting the bunch.
 
Nick Christie is coming off of a recent win in the 3000m race walk at the 2022 USATF Race Walk Championships in January. His 11:43.46 was nearly 12 seconds faster than the rest of the field. He’s seen recent success at longer distances as well, clocking a 2:48:48 to win the 2022 USATF 35 km Race Walk Championships in Santee, California in January.
 
Daniel Nehnevaj took second to Christie at the 2022 USATF 35 km Race Walk Championships, clocking a 2:59:22 to join Team USATF in Muscat at the same distance. Bricyn Healey and Michael Mannozi will round out the 35 km men. 
 
Erin Taylor Talcott and Stephanie Casey, each with several major championships under their belts, will race at the 35 km distance on the women’s side.
 
The 20 km men’s qualifiers include 19-year-old Samuel Allen, who will compete alongside Jordan Crawford, Emmanuel Corvera, and AJ Gruttadauro at the distance.
 
Robyn Stevens returns to the 20 km distance after a win at the Olympic Trials 20 km Race Walk in 1:35:13. She will be joined by established race walkers Katie Burnett and Celina Lepe.
 
The group is capped off by three U20 athletes — Heather Durrant, Angelica Harris, and Adeline Johnson — set to compete in the U20 10 km race walk. This will be the first major international championship for all three.
