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!"

John Lawton missing in Greece

John Lawton, a popular and well-respected member of Sandbach Striders, has not been seen since Sunday 8th of April when he ran in the Taygetos Challenge 2012, near Kalamata, in western Greece.


As each Strider will already know, John is a highly experienced off-road and marathon runner. It goes without saying that we are all deeply concerned about him at this time and our thoughts are with his wife Lynda and his family.

We are all hoping and praying that we have some good news to report very soon.
