Story
The Stevenage Striders are a running club set up in August 2013 to encourage running within the town. Our aim has been to enable runners to participate free of charge.
Over the last two years the club has grown by encouraging beginner runners to take part through our Zero to 5k group. In 2016 we won an award for that training group and are proud to have retained our 'free for all' status.
In 2017 the club want to participate in the 10k midweek league so that all members of the club can enjoy the experience of running a competitive 10k and progress from the regular 5k ParkRun experience.
Participation will require payment of an entry fee for the club of £100 and for all members of the club taking part to wear an official club vest (£20 per runner). We estimate that this will cost a total of approximately £600.
Please help us to retain our status as a free running club by supporting our campaign to take part in the 10k league.
Thank you
