Anyone in the athletics club?

I'm thinking of joining the athletics club next year, but I'm not very good.

Does anyone know what the standard is like? Is it just for the university elite or is it for anyone hoping to improve?
I'm not familiar with that specific club, but in my experience, every university club is looking to take on people who have varying levels of natural ability, and to improve their performance over time.

I hope so. I'll talk to someone in freshers week and see what they say.
I was UCL AC president 2009-10, and I can only reiterate the above poster. We had some serious, semi serious, casual, and complete beginner athletes. We even had people that ran for two weeks with us and after that just came for the socials. As a matter of fact, at least one person came to the first social and many more without even turning up to a single running event.
