Meet Capital City Striders
Making Track & Field Dreams Come True
For us, success is all about practicing and aiming for better results. Our main goal is to encourage and inspire you to boost your physical potential while also enjoying the process. At Capital City Striders, we provide coaching and training for 2 hours once a week indoors during the winter and two hours for as many days a week outdoors as are allowed at Laidley Field (days with meets are excluded).
The Club
We have a great training program, and happily accept students or adults with no experience.
Outdoor
The outdoor training season normally begins April 1 of every year. In addition to the 7-9 meets we organize and run locally, we take our Youth athletes to additional regional and national meets outside of WV.
Indoor
Cross Country meets start in the Fall, and Indoor Track and Field meets run November through March.
Training
Many of our Striders succeed to win Regional, National, and All-American Awards! Many receive support to Colleges and Universities! Athletes may join Striders any time during the year.
