Warm up and drills, followed by a track session (details below) designed to improve speed, strength and form finished off with a warm down.

Track sessions are suitable for everybody. If you are new to track running, speak to one of the coaches at the track. They will advise you on how to approach the sessions in order for you to gain maximum benefit from them. Give it a try, they are sociable and fun sessions, and will help you improve, whatever your personal targets.
