South Birmingham Striders (SBS) was founded in 2023 with the mission to create a new and inclusive running club for the Birmingham community. In just a short time, SBS has grown to over twenty members, each with a shared commitment to staying active and being part of a friendly, supportive group.
The club's emphasis is on inclusivity, ensuring that everyone, regardless of experience or ability, feels welcome and encouraged. From casual joggers to competitive athletes, SBS provides a space for all runners to connect, improve, and enjoy the sport together.
Over the past two years, SBS has actively participated in a variety of competitions, including national and county cross-country races and road relays. The club’s members have enjoyed not only the physical challenges but also the camaraderie and sense of achievement that come with competing in these events.
As SBS continues to grow and build on its success, the club remains dedicated to fostering a positive environment where everyone can thrive—whether it's through training, races, or simply enjoying a run with like-minded individuals.
