TRAINING SUSPENDED!

Trackspeed1 coach, John Powell, suspended training for the first time ever today, due to the extreme weather conditions enveloping the whole of the south east.

"Crystal Palace is on a very steep hill, never gets cleared of snow, and the whole scenario is so treacherous it would be ridiculous to expect athletes to struggle in," he said. "Even if they got there, freezing after dark would make a journey home perilously dangerous. Transport networks locally are virtually at a standstill anyway."

John's message to his athletes though this website is as follows:

"Training tomorrow (Thursday 7th) is cancelled. If you can access a local gym, do some tick- over work, then fine. If you are due to compete at Lee Valley on Sunday, I strongly advise you to check relevant websites to ensure it goes ahead. Please contact me for individual sessions meanwhile.

"At present training at Crystal Palace on Sunday morning for those not competing is still taking place. I will update via text or this website if that changes."
