My first race event. Which race should I choose?

Planning to do 3 events, including 3000m race walk.

What other two events should I pick?

The registration fee is for 3 events, so even if I choose 1 event I pay for 3.

Btw, I am an amateur runner.
I used to be a school athlete for 200m, 400m & shotput but that's more than 10 years ago.


Events List (choose 3):
100m women
200m women
400m women
800m women
1500m women
3000m race walk (chosen)
Shot Put women

If you like running then I'd go for the 800 and 1500 as well

All on the same day or what? Pick one that's easy & one that's a big challenge for you.

Wonder why I didn't think of it that way. I was good at short distance (usually come in 1st or 2nd for inter-schools), but loved long distance. I remember I used to beg my school coach to give me a chance to compete in long distance lol, though there was a chance I might come in last.

I am in not for the prize, but for the passion. It's just been a really really long time since I raced so I fear I can't even finish the 1500m.

Thing is, they only gave a window frame for the races, 30 & 31 Jul and 6 & 7 Aug. The actual race dates will be given to participants at a later date. I'm thinking if the dates are not favourable, I will ask for a change of event eg. to discus or shot put or a 100m run.
