Adaptability in Action Canberra Sprint Coach, January 24, 2025February 5, 2025 FAST Running Makes the Most of Summer Training January is a critical time for competition preparation, with major events like the Australian Athletics Summer Down Under Series and the Capital Athletics U20 & Open Championships taking priority. This also means limited AIS availability, requiring our squad to adapt and find new training venues to maintain our momentum. 🏟️ Woden Athletics Park – A Week of Focused TrainingOne of the standout locations during this period was Woden Athletics Park, which FAST Running booked for a full week. Training at Woden gave us a dedicated space, allowing athletes to bring and use their own starting blocks and equipment—a key advantage during this important competition phase. 🌍 Thriving in Different EnvironmentsAs a squad, we pride ourselves on adaptability. Whether it’s Woden, Stromlo, or other training locations, we embrace the challenge of different surfaces, setups, and surroundings. This variety not only keeps training fresh and engagingbut also prepares our athletes to perform in any conditions—a crucial skill for competition success. 🔥 Running Excellence, Anywhere, AnytimeWhile the AIS remains Australia’s fastest track, our ability to train effectively across multiple venues speaks to the resilience and commitment of the FAST Running squad. Whether it’s Woden’s flexibility, Stromlo’s grass track, or other locations, we continue to push limits and refine race readiness—no matter where we train. #FASTRunning #RunningExcellence #AdaptAndThrive #CompetitionSeason #SprintTraining FAST for Sport FAST Kids FAST Track Jumps News Performance Mature TeensRunning TrainingSouth CanberraSprintingTeensTraining LocationsTweensWoden AthleticsYoung Adults
