This is the current record for Mountbatten Centre Athletics Track, an 8 lane synthetic track in Portsmouth, Hampshire, England. You'll find it at Mountbatten Centre, Alexandra Park, Twyford Avenue, Portsmouth, PO2 9QA. The certificate on file expired on 31 March 2006, so treat any times run here as training times until the venue confirms a newer one. Floodlighting isn't confirmed here, as the notes and the listing disagree, so check before planning an evening session. City of Portsmouth AC, Havant AC, Portsmouth Joggers Club train here, and their sessions are usually the quickest route in if you're new to the venue. Athletics facilities get resurfaced, relit, locked and occasionally closed without much public notice, so this listing is maintained by the people who train on it rather than left to go stale between imports.
