Events
Competitions
The club has its own Road Race Championship, its own internal Cross Country competition and a series of off-road races called The Headbangers, all with many age categories. We also organise a series of team and handicap events throughout the summer which give the opportunity for runners of any speed to compete and win. Last but not least are our stumbles, a series of runs through our beautiful local countryside, taking in several pubs en route.
Local Events
Every year the club supports and helps to organise local events. The
Merrill College 10k and fun run,the Derby leg of Race for Life and the
Today's Runner cross-country league are all events that we support every
year.
One of the events we enter every year is the High Peak Relay, a 10-stage
race on the High Peak Trail from Cromford to Pomeroy. In 2005 Shelton
Striders entered two mixed teams, coming 33rd and 38th out of the 48 teams
that took part. For full results visit http://www.runningwithdavid.com/
