Craig Walton (born 10 October 1975 in Ulverstone, Tasmania) is an Australian triathlete.
Walton competed in the triathlon at the 2000 Summer Olympics. He took twenty-seventh place with a total time of 1:50:57.66.[1]
Walton was a powerful swimmer and strong cyclist. He typically established a large lead coming into the run leg but was frequently caught by faster runners before the finish. He enjoyed significantly more success in non-drafting events such as Noosa triathlon, which he won 7 times and for which he holds the course record. Walton was coach to Emma Moffatt and to his longtime partner, Emma Snowsill.
