Sleaford Striders is your local athletics club which gives running opportunities and guidance for runners at every stage of the hobby. From those just taking up the sport to experienced runners, we offer something for everyone.
The club has a long history within the town which is epitomized by the highly successful Sleaford Half Marathon which takes place annually.

Our focus is on enjoying what we do! Ask any Strider why they joined and they will offer you a mixture of reasons from looking for new friends to gaining training partners and tips!
We welcome new members throughout the year. You are more than welcome to just turn up at Sleaford Town Football Club off Boston Road from the warm-up 6:45 for a 7pm start on a Thursday evening for our regular weekly session Further details and on Sunday morning at 9am. We have the use of changing and shower facilities. We train in groups to suit all abilities and no one gets left behind or has to run on their own. The club has a team of qualified coaches who are happy to advise any member who expresses an interest in progressing.
The Monday night senior session at St Georges School is open to all members. We meet at 8pm and have the use of changing and shower facilities.
During good weather we use the field and the track marked on it to practice technical sessions (speed, Interval, etc). When the weather is not so good then we use the sportshall and do circuit training or drills.
If you’d prefer to arrange to meet someone in advance, please contact us and we’ll be happy to tell you more about the Striders.
As a club, we regularly travel to races in groups, so lifts can be shared. See the Fixtures page for details of forthcoming races.
Importantly to many members, we also have a regular social gathering to undo some of the good work we’ve done whilst working hard on the roads. We also organise an annual weekend challenge, which has taken us around various parts of the country for many enjoyable running and social weekends.
So whether you’ve been inspired by the Cancer Research Race for Life, Sport Relief, Lincoln 10k or the London Marathon, why not give us a try?
