The Smoke Rise Runners Sub Club, also known as the Striders, welcomes newcomers to join our friendly group of runners, joggers and walkers. Speed is not an issue; we have a variety of members of all fitness levels. The group congregates on Sunday mornings, at 9:00 am, (8:30 Memorial Day to Labor Day) at the beach parking lot for group runs or walks around the lake. Distances vary between 2 and 4 miles. Also, weather permitting, some of us swim across the lake. We participate in local charity runs, sponsor the Smoke Rise (invitation only) Biathlon and the July 4th Prediction Run/Walk. We also have other purely social events throughout the year. The Striders welcome you to join us and make new friends, have some fun and stay healthy.
