Club Info

	Club History The North Shore Striders Track Club was founded in 1976 to promote running for both the recreational and the competitive runner. Our current membership of 125 men and women come from various running backgrounds and ages. Some members are competitive marathoners and ultra-marathoners while others compete on the track and in cross-country. As an active member of the North Shore Striders you will never find a dull moment. Whether it is a road relay race, a club-sponsored cook out, a track workout or working at a club-hosted race, there are plenty of fun and interesting activities going on throughout the year. The North Shore Striders Track Club is a member of USA Track & Field New England, the governing body of track and field events in the United States.
