More about Aldershot Military Stadium
The running track in Aldershot is owned by the Army. It began as a cinder track built around 1955, on a site that was already a football and rugby ground before that. In 1972 it became a 7 lane synthetic track with a 9 lane straight, one of the first synthetic tracks in the UK. Aldershot, Farnham & District AC have used it since then, helped by the local council, which contributed funds to the project and still does so to keep the track available to the public. Norwest Holst Construction Ltd. later took it to 8 lanes with a 9 lane straight, and it was resurfaced in 1998 with Polytan M, although it wasn't used until 1999. Throws training isn't allowed inside the stadium, but throwing is allowed on the adjacent Mons Track. The surface has had problems with lifting, which has prevented a certification being issued. Postal enquiries about the track should be sent to Headquarters 4th Division, Steeles Road, ALDERSHOT, GU11 2DP.
