Track Etiquette
Update: From 5th May, training reverts to Marlborough Secondary School grass track over the Summer season. For safety, running direction is counter-clockwise. If effort sessions are in progress, warm up and cool down on the outside lanes. Move immediately inside or outside of the running line after each effort repetition to avoid impeding other runners. In warm weather, remember to bring something to drink. Any questions about training, please feel free to ask, Roger Bradley.
Juniors: The club does not have a junior section with the necessary safeguarding to accommodate under 18s at training sessions without parents/guardians being present. Children of members are welcome to join sessions under the following conditions:
a parent/guardian needs to be present and responsible.
this means being aware of how your child is managing the session and working at a level and volume appropriate to their age and ability.
it also means ensuring your child understands the session and any safety instructions that apply – e.g. keep to one side, watch out for other runners, etc.
Finally, all of us at a session have a responsibility to look out for everyone else there of all ages.
