MEMBERS of Bats (Bere Alston Trekker's) took part in their first track session on the new track in Tavistock last week.

 The session, which was coached by Dotty Allan, included 400m, 200m and 100m metre relays which saw all athletes running well and somewhat faster than normal! 

The session, which also welcomed members of Tavistock Athletics, was enjoyed by all and will become part of the regular training schedule as the Bats' head for an autumn and winter of 10km and half marathon road races. 

Fruit Bats (children of club members) also enjoyed their first ever session on the track and the intention is to bring them to the track each time the seniors train there.
