Track, Cross Country, and Running Club at The Ohio State University

Monday, January 13th, 2020

From the Desk of the President:

 
Hey Running Club!

First, I want to explain some things about the indoor track.  Last semester in November we started talking with our club adviser about getting access to the indoor track's jumping pits.  He talked with our track contact over break and never followed up with us.  At the same time we applied to use our programming funds to rent the indoor track. We received emails confirming that our programming funds were approved and ready for use. In the past everything was connected; if we were approved for one we were approved for both.  Or so I thought, turns out they are separated.  Between our adviser talking with the indoor track and receiving the confirmation emails from the university I thought we were cleared to use the indoor track.  On Monday the 6th I emailed the indoor track to make sure we were good to go.  That day about an hour before practice was when I found out we were not approved to rent the indoor track.  Now, I have been in contact with the indoor track multiple times since Monday.  Right now we are waiting on the indoor track to staff our practices with "Red-Coats".  Once the practices are staffed we will have access to the indoor track like normal.  I am very sorry for all of the trouble this has caused.  I made a mistake and now I am doing everything I can to fix it as soon as possible. 

When we do get the indoor track, we will switch back to 7:00pm at the indoor track.
