Training in Llanedeyrn

A national track and a university campus.

The National Indoor Athletics Centre was the UK's first purpose-built indoor athletics track when it opened in 2000, with a banked 200 m track and a 60 m straight. Colin Jackson, a former Llanedeyrn High School pupil, helped open it. Around it Cardiff Met has a swimming pool, a tennis centre, a sports hall, squash courts and the Met Active gym. Pentwyn Leisure Centre adds a public pool, gym, studio and sports hall, and Gracie Barra Cardiff teaches Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Welsh Athletics runs the Cardiff branch of its Athletics Development Centre at the NIAC. A sprint partner on the track, a lane partner in the pool or someone to drill with at Gracie Barra: here they're all within a short walk of each other.
