Should the training for British track and field athletes be carried out at a central location?

Question

This method of training has worked incredibly well for the cycling team based at Manchester, so could the same idea work for athletics?

Answer 1

Something obviously needs to be done. Maybe even split it up into the runners, throwers and jumpers and train these groups seperately. Possibly T+F combined is too big and individual's problems are being missed such as the technical aspects of T+F  i.e. baton dropping, bad tactics,leaving your mark to early, not being able to compete properly in multi-events etc. The ex-athletes seem to know the problems maybe they should be consulted more.
