One [ that I know of ] has run around the Riccarton one. An older woman, but very fit and an experienced runner and harrier.
She found it extremely difficult, and jarringly hard [ her words ] .
I find it hard to just walk on. I take my dogs around the track most Sundays, and when I tried the AWT I struggled. It's just such hard work. Okay, I'm no athlete, I've had an ankle reconstruction [ no biggie I know] and both knees fully replaced. But walking on the grass, or even the ambulance track, no problem. Even the dogs, by preference, steer away from the AWT and the greyhound wants nothing to do with it at all. Maybe the smell of the product?
