Livingston Open Meeting - Wed 22 Aug
24 July 2018
The final event in Livingston AC's series of summer Open Meetings takes place at Craigswood Sports Centre on Wednesday 22 August.
Open meetings give athletes an extra opportunity to compete, and try new events or set personal bests, without the formalities of league/championship competitions.
All club members are expected to take part in these competitions. For any new members, these events are an ideal first competition.
