Whitchurch Athletics Track Community Health Association presents 'The Track is Back' event this coming Bank Holiday Monday 25th August 10.30am - 1pm at Whitchurch Athletics Track, Bamfield, BS14 0XA.
Come along to have a taste of different athletic disciplines from sprinting and agility with UK Athletics registered coaches to middle distance running with the support of local running clubs.
We will also have our novelty event, "Cops and Robbers" where several Police Officers will be there for you to race against over 100 metres!
We are very grateful to Avon and Somerset Police who are supporting us with this event which we hope will be the first of many. Thanks also to Concrete Therapy Running Club who are co-ordinating the middle distance station.
South Bristol based running shop Kinisi Run Hub are also in support
Bristol Olympian Vernon Samuels will also be coming as our special guest. He will be sharing his experiences of training at the Whitchurch Track, his Olympic experiences and how athletics can have a positive influence in so many areas of life.
Thanks as well to Bristol City Council and the Bristol Family Cycling Centre for letting us use the track for this event. This is a small event to get things started but our long term vision is to get more things happening. It's an amazing resource for the community that can provide huge benefit.
We are looking forward to seeing you there!
