Loughborough Sprint Series
Loughborough Sprint Series
Loughborough Athletics is pleased to announce the launch of a new sprint grand prix series at the Paula Radcliffe stadium on campus
Loughborough will be providing sprinters in the Midlands area and wider afield with a regular series of high quality sprint opportunities throughout the summer where the 100m will always be run with the favouring wind direction (utilising Loughborough's reversible straights).
The dates for this initial year's series will include some of our existing competition dates such as the LIA and LEAP. Overall prizes will be available for the winners of both the men’s and women’s series, which will be calculated by comparing the top threes performance from three of the five meetings in the series.
The series will kick off on April 20th and conclude with Loughborough EAP (World Athletics Continental Tour Challenger) meeting on 10th July.
Prizes include high performance footwear for men and women overall winners
