The men's 2 miles walk event at the 1938 British Empire Games was held as an invitation event on 7 February at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney, Australia.[1][2] It was the first time that race walking was held at the Games, although unofficially, and the sport would not return to it until 1966.
