I am getting back into the track in a big way this summer, by way of training and races (I have a race next week) and wanted to see if any of you out there liked track as much as little old me.<br><br>Wanted to know if when I do take part in the 100m and 200m race next week, will I have to use a starting block?? Has anyone used these?<br><br>Oh and other track stuff can be discussed too...:-)

Where do you practice? I went to Battersea Park a couple of times earlier in the year until I had a very nasty experience.

Met Balham Bouncer. He knew my name. Don't know how - doesn't everyone wear kneepads and a Fulham shirt?

I practice at Croydon Arena - actually it's where my races are next week.

Never been to Battersea for the same reasons as JL - don't want to bump into anything nasty.

I was up the track last night, not running though. We are on the track every Thursday and I last raced on the track on Saturday.
