    I was just wondering if there is a running track in Kildare that you can pay and use it without joining a club? Im living in Newbridge.

    Thanks.

    Not sure about the payment part, but is there not a running track in Newbridge, used by Newbridge AC? I think its in the grounds of a school.

    The one in kilcock is a sandy all weather type, as oppossed to a synthetic surface fyi. The club who use it are a very friendly bunch who don't mind the odd stray using it. ( as I found out when I was up visiting one of sis's). Just be sure to say hi and ask permission if they are there when you are using it. Easy parking too.

    Garmins are not that accurate. Especially if you're following a curved path.

    Ex newbridge runner.

    Its a 400m grass track. Not in the most awesome condition, but it does the job.
    There is an inner beat up gravel track, that is less than 400m
