If you’re looking for a local running club then you’ve come to the right place.

About our club

Stockton Striders Athletics Club is a running club based at Stockton Town FC, Bishopton Road West, Stockton. Formed in 2014 to support those who wish to train, race or run for fun on and off road.

We have a number of coaches, qualified to either Coach in Running Fitness (CiRF) or Leader in Running Fitness (LiRF), who hold a weekly structured training session.

We hope that joining not only improves your times and enjoyment but also introduces you to new friends.

There are further details about our club on this site, but the best way to find out about us is to come along and give us a try. Not only do we support and encourage everyone, whether experienced or new to running but we’re a very friendly and social club as well.
