Here are the races in the 2017 Striders Road Race Championship. Please note the first race at Dewsbury is on Sunday 5th February. This race does sell out so please book yourself on it soon.
Same format as last year, 9 races with your best 5 scores counting and 10 bonus points for each race ran.
As you can see, we look to cover a variety of distances between 10k and HM making them accessible to most members. This is why we don’t put a marathon in there as not everyone can run one.
We also try and ensure a race around once a month throughout the calendar.
The championships are open to ALL Striders members, the competition is FREE (excluding the obvious race entry fees) and the top runner in each age male and female category (senior, V40, V50, V60) wins a prize with a medal for the winner and runner up at the end of the season.

Note: Some of the fixtures later in the year are subject to the usual unconfirmed or dates that could change.
Please note that the Fell Championship fixtures will be released shortly.
We would advise that if you want to run Dewsbury and/or Dronfield that you don’t leave booking until the last minute as both races have limited entry numbers and don’t usually accept entries on the day. Please book early to avoid disappointment.
If you have any queries, please pass them to Nick Burns via the contact form.
