Centurions in the Netherlands
The Continental Centurion title is handed out by the R.W.V. as it is the most active race walking club in the Netherlands. For the record: C.V.N. has nothing to do with the Continental Centurion title. The Continentals currently have about 300 members.

In 1973 the title Continental Centurion was first allocated. Continental Centurion 1 is Jan Vos.
The rules to obtain this title are roughly the same as for (UK) Centurions. You have to walk 160.928 kilometres within 24 hours at a race on Dutch soil. Normally these races are organized by the O.L.A.T. one year, followed by the R.W.V. the next year (in Weert and Schiedam respectively). Just like a Centurion, a Continental Centurion receives a number which he or she will keep for the rest of his or her life (and beyond).  Continental Centurions are mainly Dutch, but there are also some German, Belgian, British or Danish Continental Centurions.


Dutch Centurion Association
After L. Schol, Centurion 291, had become the first Dutch Centurion, more and more Dutch men and women travelled to Great Britain to obtain the Centurion title. Besides the British Centurions, the largest group of foreign Centurions are the Dutch. To stay in contact with each other and to represent the Dutch contingent of Centurions the Dutch Centurion Association (Centurion Vereniging Nederland, C.V.N.) was founded on the 12th February 1966. The C.V.N. spreads news about past and future races amongst its members, organizes trips to the British races and has a Centurion reunion each year. After the last Battersea Park race, the reunion 1999 was held on the 27th of November 1999 in Amersfoort, where the Dutch cavalry museum (tanks/horses) was visited.
 

Australian Centurions

And there are of course the Australian Centurions, established in 1971, and who are a very active group at the moment and  have their own website. There are 46 numbers allocated in Australia (number 46 being Nigerian walker Charles Arosanyan) of Surrey Walking Club.

The founders decided that the positions of President and Vice President would be for terms of 2 years and would rotate through the membership in order of Centurion number. That would ensure that all members had the chance to serve the club in an official capacity

New Zealand Centurions

The New Zealand Centurion Club was founded and created it's own website and the first 4 numbers have been handed out...

American (USA) Centurions

Also, there is an American Centurion title. The title was introduced in 1967 by the Columbia Track Club. They have become active once more, so check out the links page for the latest news or links. The last new American Centurion (57) is Geoff Tranter from Great Britain (in 23 hours, 49 minutes and 52 seconds).
