At As Good As Grass, we helped Fulwood Primary School transform an unusable, boggy field into a bright, durable, all-weather Daily Mile Track. The school wanted to increase pupil fitness but couldn’t justify the cost of a full sports pitch or tarmac running circuit. A custom-branded artificial grass track offered the perfect solution – practical, engaging, and affordable.
We installed approximately 380 linear metres of artificial grass track around the school field, designed using the school’s own branding colours. The layout was planned to work with the natural shape of the field, ensuring maximum lap distance while keeping the installation completely safe, durable, and easy to maintain.
The existing field became waterlogged throughout the year, making it difficult for children to exercise outdoors. Traditional options — such as installing a tarmac track or building a dedicated sports pitch — were outside the school’s budget and would significantly limit how the field could be used. The school needed an affordable, low-maintenance, year-round solution.
We designed and installed a custom Daily Mile Track using durable, non-infill artificial grass designed for schools. The track was shaped to run the entire perimeter of the field, giving maximum lap distance and allowing pupils to stay active even in wet weather.
