There’s a lot of people who think the BU track is not 200m in length. These people would be correct.
We want to share the truth.
And that truth is…the track at Boston University is LONG
1.4cm each lap to be exact, we apologize for making everyone run that little bit extra 😂
Hope you didn’t miss the 2022 BU David Hemery Valentine Invite…
