I'm the same as Ian, no track nearby. I'm gonna have to get googling!.
Sprints are something that I really need to involve more in my training so this is a step in the right direction. Good challenge Standard, as always it sounds like hell.

edit - Ian does have a track nearby, he just doesnt want to pay for it! - tight arse! lol

Shitting christ. This just isn't moral.


I don't have access to a track either, but I have a straight paved path through the park which I use for 400m's (measured fairly accurately with mapmyrun.com). Should be good enough.

Since a bunch of us, myself included, don't have access to a track, any chance of changing this month's challenge before a bunch of people do it? I love the idea of this challenge, it's just not very doable for a lot of us.

If possible fine a straight path of road that is 400m that you can use, i never thought a track would be much of an issue around here are a bunch at every highschool even some grade schools

everyone has restraining orders they wish not to share....

the Uni gym I work out at has got a brand new synthetic football/soccer feild and track area... that is closed to the public.

Part of the challenge for me will be getting my dwarf ass over the fence!

Na, but you're right

I'm not paying (works out silly money) $11 to run around a track for less then 45 minutes.
FUCK TAK

I could try near the gym that I'm doing hill sprints on later, only problem is about 200m is on a incline
