Sleaford Striders is the Athletics Club which gives running opportunities and guidance if you are just taking up the sport or an experienced athlete, we offer something for everyone at every stage of the hobby. We train in groups to suit all abilities and no one gets left behind or has to run on their own. If you have been you've been inspired by the Cancer Research for Life, Sport Relief, Lincoln 10K or the London Marathon, why not give us a try?

The club has a long history within the town and has just celebrated its 25th Anniversary and is now a Clubmark  accredited Athletic Club. The Clubmark is the only national cross sports quality accreditation scheme for clubs with junior sections and is built around a set of core criteria which ensure that accredited clubs operate to a set of consistent, accepted and adopted minimum operating standards.

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! As a club, we regularly travel to races in groups, so lifts can be shared.

We welcome new members throughout the year.

If you’d prefer to arrange to meet someone in advance, please contact Clive Holden on 01529 307735 or Peter Nadin on 01529 306733 and they will be happy to tell you more about the Striders.
