Welcome to Russ on Athletics!

A home away from home for athletes/coaches/parents/officials or any other lost souls with a passion, or a question, or a grizzle, or an idea that relates even remotely to track and field.

What this site has to offer:

Each month: The Northsport Athletics Development training schedules, with access to previous months' schedules (these are generic and can easily be adapted to local conditions)

A bit of gossip from the training group

Training times from the group that you can measure your training performances against.

From the archives: articles, lectures, training courses, interviews, skill notes and hints collected over 50 years of active track and field coaching.

Profiles of coaches linked with the development program.

Welcome aboard!
