JOGGING TRACK FLOORING |running tracks|running tracks|portable running track|mondo running track Today’s modern training programs require long hours of intense, repetitive training on the track. To prevent stress injury, an indoor jogging track needs to deform evenly in order to properly absorb and return energy. Jogging Track flooring also needs to have a consistent response to allow athletes to execute the relaxed high-speed training necessary to establish proper motor-memory. Mondo tests each strip of the jogging track flooring with a device called a durometer to make sure it doesn't exceed International Association of Athletic Federations standards for firmness. Once the mondo running track is laid, the IAAF itself uses an "artificial athlete" armed with sensors that calculate the force imparted on an athlete's feet. Mondo is also the technical sponsor and one of the official jogging track flooring of more than one hundred sports associations and federations, with the most important including the IAAF for athletics, FIBA for basketball, IHF for handball, Lega Nazionale Dilettanti e Federazione Italiana Gioco Calcio (FGC: National Italian Football Federation), CONI and FIDAL. |
