Waco Striders Running Club

Hewitt, TX 76643 US

Membership changes for 2025

Increasing costs have led us to the difficult decision to increase our membership fees for the first time since 2015. Our new fee structure is:

  • Family Membership: $35
  • Individual Membership: $25
  • Student Membership: $15

We have also changed from a calendar year membership to a 12 month membership period that starts the month you join. You also have the option to auto-renew, so you won't have to remember when you joined.

Membership Campaign

If you join or renew your membership by January 10, 2025, you will be eligible for a "2025 Members Only" drawing at the Awards Banquet. The prize will be a free race entry to any one of the Waco Striders hosted races in 2025 to two lucky winners. You do not have to be present at the banquet to win.

Waco Striders Awards Banquet

The Waco Striders Running Club annual awards banquet will be held on Saturday, January 11, 2025. You can purchase tickets now for $25.00 each. 

The Roaring 20's is the theme for this year's banquet. The Casino is returning again for you to test your gambling skills. There will also be a 360 photo booth.

Location
The Palladium
729 Austin Ave.
Waco, TX

Doors open at 5:00 pm

You can buy your tickets during your membership registration or click the button below if you have already joined the club for 2025.

Membership

The Waco Striders Running Club is always on the lookout for new members—especially those who can run faster than a squirrel on espresso! We welcome runners and walkers of all fitness levels, whether you’re training for a marathon, a 5K, or just trying to outrun your couch. Join us for some fun and camaraderie as we hit the pavement (or the trails, or whatever surface we can find).

Member Benefits

  • Weekly Group Runs: Access to supported runs with amenities such as water and ice.
  • Training Programs: Participation in structured programs, including Half Marathon Training and a Monthly Mileage Tracker.
  • Social Events: Enjoy 2-3 picnics and an Awards Banquet throughout the year. Yes, there will be food. And awards! Who doesn’t want a trophy for “Best Snack Eater”?
  • Liability Insurance: Coverage through the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA)- because sometimes running can feel like an extreme sport!
  • Discounts: Receive a 10% discount on running shoes and apparel at Waco Running Company.  Your feet will thank you, and your wallet will too!

So, if you want to stay in the loop with the wild world of running in Waco (and maybe make some questionable life choices along the way), join us today!
