Club News, Training
Return of 5 groups on a Thursday and England Match Day plans - including a Euro Run🏆⚽️🏃‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️ ❗️Here’s everything you need to know looking into June 🗓️❗️ Tuesday’s sessions will follow the usual format with seven groups doing various speed sessions taking off from the club.

The Cleveland STAY relays… 13/14 July

Club News
As most of you will know The Cleveland Way Relay is scheduled for Sunday 16 June. Unfortunately we have insufficient numbers to enter a Striders team this year. However, like we did during the Covid years we thought we would do our own local version of the relay in teams. There are 16 legs on the Cleveland Way Relay from 6k to 14k. We will assign everyone who wants to take part to a team and leg. You’ll then run the distance of your assigned leg at any point over the weekend of the 13/14 July at a location of your choosing. The idea being that each team runs the same length as the Cleveland Way Relay distance. You could choose to run your leg on the actual Cleveland Way…

Club merchandise

Club News
Club Merchandise As a club we always love to hear from you on what you would like to see us provide in terms of merchandise. It’s always appreciated when suggestions come in and we are happy to explore possibilities. So, a couple of suggestions have been made and I would like to gauge interest before we go any further. First suggestion is we provide sliders. I know a lot of you wear them pre and post runs. The cost is dependant on the amount of orders as it won’t be a product we would hold back stock of. So the more orders received, the less they cost! I have attached a photo of an example. Rough cost is around £22. Second product would be joggers. Again these would have the…
