Anyone out there aware of any in Toronto,Ontario, Canada?
Yep, there are a few to choose from, including:
University of Toronto Track Club
Toronto Olympic Club
Etobicoke Huskies Striders
Go to the page I've linked to below to mail coaches directly:
What sort of track team are you looking for? There are several in addition to those mentioned above.
TOC is almost exclusively a distance running oriented club.
EHS has few, if any sprinters or field eventers.
UTTC is an all-inclusive club with healthy representation in field, sprints and distance.
YUTC has a couple distance types, but is more a sprint club.
Phoenix I believe is more high school age middle distance.
Markham TC also lacks representation at the senior level or non-distance I believe as well.
Your location in the city might also be of relevance as to what club is best for you.
Thanks for your responses. I'm downtown (Queen & Spadina), don't drive and am a middle-aged middle/long distance runner.
If you're at Queen and Spadina, then you're just a hop, skip and a jump to the U of T AC, where UTTC is generally based, so that may be your best bet. Feel free to email me ireid1500@yahoo.com for more info. Right now UTTC has a solid middle distance/long distance group (8:17 through to 2:27 guys) and meet regularly for workouts, long runs and tempos, all accessible from your current location without a car.
The York Region Olympic club is another good one. Couple of older guys running there and some good youngsters too.
