Membership

Community

The Howard County Striders club, now over 40 years old, is a member of the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA). By joining the Striders, you join an established and respected running community. People of all ability levels are welcome!

The club, with Howard County government and business support, recently applied to be designated as an RRCA Runner Friendly Community! Part of application was a video submission summarizing how our club contributes to the Columbia running scene.

Training Programs

The Striders have several different training programs for their members. These groups include Females in Training (F.I.T.) and the Next Step programs. All programs have experienced coaches who lead runners through the training programs.
