ABOUT US

Kimberworth Striders Running Club was founded in 1986 to support local runners in the Kimberworth area of Rotherham. Since then, we’ve grown to over 100 members from across the wider Rotherham area.

We’re a welcoming and down-to-earth club, with runners of all ages and abilities. Whether you’re chasing PBs or just looking for company on the roads and trails, there’s a place for you here.

WHEN AND WHERE DO WE MEET ?

We meet every Tuesday and Thursday at 6.15pm at The Drawbridge Pub, Fellowsfield Way, Kimberworth. Come along and join us!

WHAT TRAINING DO WE DO?

The club aims to cater for a wide range of abilities. Runs incorporate tempo, hill and speed sessions, depending upon the time of year and upcoming races. Training in the winter evenings tends to be on roads and in the summer months the Striders tend to go off-road (unless there is an up-coming road race which requires some road training).

CLUB RACES

The Striders regularly organise their own races & have organised over a hundred events in their thirty plus year history, the main races being:

  • Kimmy Kanter

  • Stan Bagshaw Toffee Run

  • Canal Race

  • Santa's Special

  • Kimmy Killer

CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP

Kimberworth Striders have organised a 'Club Championship' series of races since 1993, unique in that it is 'graded' to take into account an individuals ability, 'runners' being divided into a variety of 'Divisions' - So EVERYONE has a chance to win.
