Runners say indoor track inadequate compared to the Shell, other Big 10 schools
The Madison running community is urging the University of Wisconsin-Madison to alter its plans for the new football practice facility on campus that includes a smaller indoor track than the one that stood for nearly 70 years.
In August, UW-Madison demolished the aging Camp Randall Memorial Sports Center, commonly known as the “Shell,” to build a new indoor football field, strength and conditioning center and indoor track.
The $285 million project is one of the largest in UW Athletics history.
