Every Saturday at 7 am, Striders and friends meet at the Columbia Swim Center parking lot to run anywhere from 6-20 miles. All paces are welcome. The run starts at 7 am SHARP! Plan to arrive early. If it is your first run with the group, introduce yourself, and you should be able to find some runners who are going at your own pace. Volunteers usually provide water at 1-3 (depending on distance) stops. Join us for this Howard County running tradition that has run every Saturday for 40+ years. After the run, many runners head to Bagel Bin Deli in the Wilde Lake Village Center for coffee, bagels, and socializing.

Resolution Prediction Run
2025-01-01 09:30 - 11:00 | Jeffers Hill Neighborhood Center, 6030 Tamar Drive, Columbia, MD, 21045, United States
A prediction run is entirely different from other races that you’ve run in the past. Rather than finishing first or running the fastest, the object of a prediction run is to finish as close to a certain time as possible. In the case of the Howard County Striders prediction runs, the goal is to finish as close to 11:00am as possible. One way the Striders prediction runs differ from many other runs is that you get to start whenever you want – whoever finishes closest to 11:00am wins. Oh, and one important thing, you CANNOT use any sort of timing device. Also, no baby strollers, iPods, headphones or animals.
