....athletics track used by Cambridge & Coleridge Athletics Club. The pavilion equipment room has racing wheelchairs which may be available to use, if you haven't got your own and would like to try out one.

If you want to use one, let RichHL know so that he can make sure the equipment room is unlocked on the day.

As you are a member of C&C you may be able to use the wheelchairs on training nights, just ask one of the club representatives - you may have already.

Hi,

Welcome to Fetch.

I don't use a chair but I am a para athlete (triathlon) so know a lot of chair racers (some of them pretty good) if there is a question I can help with I will. Should you want to start riding a hand bike, I know about those to.

PS Any wheelchair Fetchies would be welcome to the Jingle Mile. If you let me know you're coming in advance and you don't have your own racing chair, we might be able to sort you out with a loan chair for the day. We might also be able to scare up some race-running frames for anyone who wants to give that a go.
