About us

Sandbach Striders was born back in 2003. Since the early days, membership has grown with a firm ethos of the club being not just about running but social activities as well. The club is affiliated to UK AAA and has its own qualified coaches. Many other special events take place on various nights too.

The club meets on Wednesdays at 18:30 and Sundays at 09:00 at Elworth Cricket Club.

Whilst many members compete in races from 5k to Marathons, the emphasis remains purely on keeping people motivated and having fun. Why not scan through our race reports to see what we’ve been up to? Having read them, you’re sure to see why Sandbach Striders has developed the motto of being

"No Ordinary Running Club!"

  1. Hi mate, just watched your race report, it brought back some very happy and painful memories of one of the greatest times I will ever have, thanks to all of you guys in tent 96. It was an absolute pleasure and honour to meet both you and Danny and I look forward to that beer one day. Thanks for letting me live it again mate.
