The track course is a 400 meter continuous loop with a course width of at least 1 meter for each competitor in a race. The 400 meter track loop should be relatively flat. The course should be prepared so that conditions are similar for all parts of the track. The direction of competing shall be left hand inside. A long distance course shall offer a variety of terrain and loops around the area for distances of 1600 meters and longer. Event specific layout should include the following. 25, 50 and 100 Meter Races. Run on a straight area of the course or on a separate course to allow for events to run concurrently. Lanes should be marked and delineated on the track for the 25, 50 and 100 meter events. These lanes should be at least one meter wide each with wider lanes up to 1.7 meters wide being preferable.
