Walk For Fun, Fitness Or Competition
The Buckeye Striders is a group of adult athletes who walk for fun, fitness and competition. We meet every Saturday morning in Central Ohio for group walks and have breakfast together after. Sometimes small groups will meet midweek for extra training.
Many of us train for and enter races to walk or race walk together. It is more fun to train for a half marathon when you have people who will train with you.
This year the Buckeye Striders are entering a variety of races including: OSU Four-Miler, Cat Caper 5K, Cap City Half Marathon, Columbus Marathon (Half), Emerald City and more!
Check out our Group Walk Schedule and join us! (Note: If the weather is bad, we might move our weekly walks indoors. Check out our Facebook page for the most current walk locations.)
