The dimensions are 16 laps to a mile and the entrance is accessible from the balcony level on the second floor of Barnard Hall. It is usually available for walking and jogging from 6:00 AM to 12:00 AM. Proper running shoes are essential. Mileage may be recorded and those who complete 50 or 100 miles will receive a complimentary gift. Track use is prohibited during team practice (Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:00-7:00 PM and Saturdays from 9am-noon). Check the track entrance for special events which preclude track use.
