STRIDERS CLUB INFO
We encourage all our members new and ‘old’ to come run with us, have fun with us and get to know us. And let us get to know you. We’re really a great bunch of people who have loads of fun whether it be laughing, chatting, battling, or joking on the run, oh yes...and training of course! For the more serious... We help you get your mileage for those BIG races and our training schedule will nudge you in the right direction to achieve your goals.
The club provides training facilities and information to members participating in the shorter runs right through to Marathons and Ultras such as Comrades, as well as trail running. Many of our members have done Triathlons and would be able you assist you with advice and info regarding training for these events.
Members are encouraged to actively, involve themselves and their families in the various sporting and social events organised by the club. The more you get involved the more rewarding the experience.
We also have a small but well-equipped gym for those recovering from injury or wanting an extra work out before or after the run.
