The 400 meter, eight lane track has a Mondo FTX surface, the same artificial surface used at the Beijing Olympics. The events will be televised and the broadcast picked up by countries around the world. The CBC offers coverage each day of the competition on the main network and CBCSporta.ca, where you will find the schedules . It is also availabe in High Definition on CBCHD. The time slot is after midnight so you might want to record it. Look for "Track and Field". There is also daily coverage on the CBC Bold cable channel.
