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

Race Report: Coniston 14m Trail Race 21/03/2015

On Sat 21st March I did the beautiful and challenging Coniston 14 road race. 

 There was just under 14 miles of fantastic scenery with enough ups and downs to keep the legs working. 


 There was also a great atmosphere in Coniston Village afterwards as runners, friends and families enjoyed the Bluebird beer in the spring sunshine. I maintained my time of last year of 2 hours and 23 minutes which at my age is an achievement!
