NOT UP TO STANDARD
See updated post. Lane 4 is 250m in length.
Re poster " not up to standard", some people never happy, i say well done to whoever brought this to fruition its a fab facility to train on by the looks of it, especially for juveniles. Doe,s nt need to be olympic standard to get the benefit from it. Well done again to those who did this rather than just moaning about what we don,t have.
