Dronfield Relay

2023 Race Date: Sunday 9th July 10:30am

Location: George & Dragon pub, Holmesfield

Entries for the race will open in spring 2023.

We will then create Striders teams of mixed time ability to create an evenly balanced, fun-packed race.

As in previous years, non-Striders teams of six runners are warmly welcomed to join us for this great day of relaxed racing and social. Non-Striders teams are asked to make a nominal £10 entry fee per team.

The call for runners will close a few weeks before the race to allow teams to be finalised.


The Dronfield relay is an annual team event for Striders and invited guests and always a great day in the Striders calendar.

Each team is made up of 6 runners with a pair running together on each of the 3 legs of the course.

The race covers a total of around 15 miles through the countryside around Dronfield and Coal Aston with each leg being approximately 5 miles long.

A route map is available to help runners on their course reccies: route map in PDF format (6MB)

It is a low key event with a focus on enjoying the run and socialising afterwards rather than cut and thrust competition.

All Striders teams are pre-mixed by ability and all non-Striders teams are time-handicapped so everyone has a decent chance of victory.

The relay starts at Holmesfield at 10:30 opposite the George and Dragon pub. It finishes back where it started outside the George and Dragon pub at about 12:30.

Recent years have seen our biggest ever fields of teams and great days of Striders racing and social. We’re looking forward to an equally enjoyable event this year!
