Lakeshore Striders are a senior running club based in Blessington, Co. Formed in 2007 we have around 80 members and this continues to grow. 2011 saw the completion of a 400m gravel running track at Blessington, Community College which is of huge benefit to our club. Our club is all inclusive, from beginners to marathoners and new members are always welcome. Lakeshore Striders is also the host club

for The Lakes 10k race. We are very proud of the face that over the past 3 years this race has raised over €52,000 for Cystic Fibrosis Association of Ireland. This highly regarded race is a must for any runner.

What a day of firsts for some of our juvenile athletes who took part today in the U12/U13 and juvenile Leinster competition in Tullamore. 12 athletes in total competed with several making it into finals in their events. A special mention to Ryan Kelly who placed 2nd in the U12 high jump and will now progress to nationals. There was also new pb’s and most importantly smiles all around as they supported each other and embraced the experience.

On Friday the 15th of May over 40 Striders partook in the 5 mile. This race is becoming a highlight in the racing calendar for the club. A fast course with a warm reception afterwards, what more could you ask for!

For the 3rd year in a row the Striders brought home the winning team top prize. And well done to .pe.obrien for winning the M50 category. We also had a massive turn out from the C25k contingent. Well done at all and thank you to for a great event!

What an unbelievable day for the club - Day 1 Wicklow Championships.

First up was the Juvenile Awards for U8-U11. Every single child was brilliant as they moved between distance, sprint, javelin and long jump. Next up was their relays and they all played a stormer bringing home a haul of medals.
From U8 - Masters the club took part in relays all the way through the ages. We cheered each other on, inspired each other and most importantly we showed up for each other. It’s incredible how far we have come in 1 year and to see juvenile and seniors compete together in the same day was a great milestone 🤩
