Badgerland Striders

Southeast Wisconsin

Club Programs and Fun Runs

Fun Runs

The Striders host Fun Runs for our members and their guests throughout the year. All Runners and walkers - all paces are welcome.  Our Fun Runs are held at various parks and have no charge to attend and are not timed. They are a fun way to get out and run with a group. There will usually be a three-ish mile route set out, but you’re welcome to run your own route too.    After the run join fellow members for drinks and snacks provided by the Striders.  click here to see the tentative 2025 Schedule

The Badgerland Striders are Wisconsin’s oldest and largest running club.  We have been running since October 1st, 1959 and our membership contains over 2000 running individuals and families. The club’s primary purpose is the promotion and encouragement of running as a sport and as a means of healthy exercise. Along with hosting a wide variety of races and running events, we also hold free Fun Runs, track workouts, and a marathon training program. We are active members of the Road Runners Club of American (RRCA) and USA Track & Field, which has awarded our events as State and National running events. We are also proud to support projects improving local infrastructure to the benefit of the running community at large.
