About Sunderland Strollers

Sunderland Strollers is a running club in Sunderland, England, with a home at the Beacon of Light beside the Stadium of Light. Members can run for company and fitness or take part in races ranging from short road events to ultras. The club also participates in cross-country and relays and organises the Pier to Pier race.

Wednesday's main club run uses several pace groups, with routes typically covering about four and a half to eight and a half miles. The wider programme includes hill sessions around Penshaw, track running at Silksworth and other weekday and weekend outings. New runners can try the club before committing to membership and should check the current meeting instructions.

Aly Dixon and Lyne Valentine appear on the club's honorary-member list, which recognises members who have represented their country. That distinction is separate from a claim about their present competitive affiliation. Public secretary, chair and welfare contacts help prospective members find the right person for practical questions.
