DETAILS of the first Nitro Athletics competition have been revealed by the organisers, and the event will see a mix of both traditional and original disciplines across the three-event meet.
Nitro Athletics, the revolutionary new series in the sport, takes place in Melbourne, Australia, on February 4, 9 and 11, and will see six teams of 24 athletes go up against one another in a range of disciplines in a points-based competition.
The schedule sees teams take part in a mixture of power, technique, endurance and teamwork events. Traditional 100m sprints will take place but there will also be mixed and medley relays, such as the 2x300m relay, the 100m/ 110m hurdles relay and a 200/ 200/400/800m relay.
