Athletics

Athletics is one of the newest sports clubs at Nottingham Trent University. Set up over the last year, it has become very popular and caters for all abilities and events. From novice to those representing county, national and GB your level is welcome in events as wide ranging as cross country, marathons, track and field, and road running. Those who have not taken part in athletics before are also welcome to join and improve their fitness or just to have fun! We train hard to achieve success, so we take the majority of our training seriously, although there is plenty of time to have fun during sessions and after!

The club currently has teams which compete in BUCS Athletics championships throughout the year covering:

• marathon running
• cross country running
• indoor athletics
• outdoor track and field

The undoubted highlight of 2012 will be the BUCS outdoors event - being held at the Olympic Stadium as a test event prior to London 2012 Summer Olympics. We hope to get as many people there as possible!

Moving on from all the serious stuff, we hold amazing socials every Wednesday evening, where the team gets together and is able to mix with other sports clubs, teams and societies. 

We will ensure that you have the most amazing time and meet friends through the club.
