John Anderson and Maggie McCoy Expand HRW’s International Recognition at the WMA 2024 Indoor Championships
HRW continued its participation in the international arena at the WMA Indoor Championships in Gothenburg, Sweden in August. John Anderson raced in the M 80-84 division against walkers from seven countries. He did not medal but was the second place American. Maggie McCoy raced in the W 70-74 division and finished 10 laps before being DQ’d along with 3 other women by the rigorous judging. This was her first experience racing at this high international level and she and John enjoyed the camaraderie of these senior athletes and learned a lot about our favorite sport and our fellow walkers. They look forward to more opportunities to compete at this level. The next international meet, WMA 2025 Indoors, will be in March in Gainesville, FL, one month after the USATF National Indoors at the same location.
