An anchoring system for anchoring a post to a concrete body, such as a post for a basketball goal, includes a template for alignment of anchor bolts, which can be J-bolts. The template includes a plate with openings corresponding to openings on a mounting flange of the post, each plate opening including an alignment feature for orienting an anchor bolt perpendicular to the bottom of the plate. A nut engages the anchor bolts beneath the mounting flange of the post. The vertical shank of the anchor bolts is coated with a pre-cured elastomeric composition that has dampening properties, with the thickness of the coating being 5-75% the diameter of the anchor bolt.

The present application provides a hybrid running track article, comprising, from top to bottom: (I) a top coating layer made from a first composition comprising an externally emulsified polyurethane dispersion and rubber particles, wherein the externally emulsified polyurethane dispersion is derived from: (Ai) an isocyanate component comprising one or more compounds having at least two isocyanate groups, (Bi) an isocyanate-reactive component comprising one or more compounds having at least two isocyanate-reactive groups; (Ci) an optional catalyst, (Di) an external emulsifier, (Ei) a chain extender and (Fi) water, and (II) a bottom layer made from a second composition comprising a 1K solvent-free polyurethane binder and rubber particles.
