Rekortan M at the Parliament Hill Fields Athletics Track in London, UK
A World-Class Surface for a Premier Venue
Nestled in the historic Hampstead Heath in Camden, Parliament Hill Fields Athletics Track is a cornerstone of British athletics. With breathtaking views of the London skyline, it is a training ground for elite athletes and a hub for grassroots sports. The track is home to the renowned Night of the 10,000m PBs, widely regarded as one of the most exciting athletics events in the world. As an official venue for the British Championships and host of the 2024 Paris Olympic Trials, it plays a pivotal role in national and international competition.
To meet the demands of top-tier athletes and the local running community, the track was resurfaced with Rekortan M, a premium synthetic surface known for its superior energy return, traction, and durability. Completed in October 2023, the upgrade ensures optimal performance conditions for all users. Rekortan M’s advanced technology enhances speed and shock absorption, allowing runners to push their limits—whether training for international competition or aiming for a personal best. The resurfacing was also critical in preparing the track for the Olympic Trials, providing athletes with a high-performance surface for their crucial qualification races.
Beyond elite competition, Parliament Hill Fields Athletics Track is a training base for Highgate Harriers, one of London’s most respected running clubs. It is also extensively used by local schools—including Parliament Hill High School, William Ellis School, Fleet Primary School, and Gospel Oak Primary School—giving young athletes access to a professional-grade surface to develop their skills. Additionally, the track is available for private bookings, further cementing its role as an inclusive, high-performance sporting facility.
