Speed on the track

Coached intervals at Al Hussein Sports City, written from your plan. Pace groups from beginner to sub-3, and the coach in your ear through the app: when to push, when to float, how many reps are left.

Endurance in the hills

The long run on the Dabouq hills, paced to your goal race: 14 km in build weeks, 30 for the ultra crew. Effort on the climbs, time on your feet, then coffee with the crew.

Training

Effort levels: how hard each run of the week should feel

Easy, steady, hard. Every run in your week has a job, and the effort you bring decides whether it does that job. Here is one simple scale for all of them.

Health

Tired, overtrained or burnt out?

Feeling flat is not always the same problem. Here is how to tell normal tiredness from something that needs real rest, and what to do about each.

Training

What to say to yourself when it gets hard

Every run has a moment when your head wants to stop before your legs do. A few short, ready-made words help you get through it.

FAQ

What people
usually ask

First time? This should cover it. Anything else, message us on Instagram or ask the coach in the app.

Do I need to be a member?

The Open Run every Monday is open to everyone. Training with the club — coached sessions, your plan, the app's coach, photos and the member pass — is the Striders membership, 40 JOD a month. Membership opens soon; ask us on Instagram.

What do I get as a member?

All coached sessions (track, long run, strength), a training plan towards your goal race, the live coach in the app, the season calendar, race teams, members-only kit drops, your member pass, and photos of you from club runs (photographer coming soon).

I'm not fast. Is this for me?

Yes. Serious doesn't mean fast. It means you train with a plan. We have pace groups from beginner to sub-3 marathoners, and every plan starts where you are.

What can I train for?

Half marathon, marathon, ultra, Red to Dead, triathlon and Ironman. Running comes first; cycling and swimming sessions are on the way.

How do I join?

Come to a Monday Open Run. Membership opens soon; until then, message us on Instagram (@striders.club) and we will save you a spot.

Who are the coaches?

Certified run coaches lead every member session. You'll meet them on Monday.

Is there a women's group?

Yes. Mixed pace groups at every session and a women-only group on the Saturday long run.

What should I bring?

Running shoes, water, and a watch if you have one. The app works on your phone too.

What about the heat in summer?

Summer sessions start earlier and plans adapt. The app moves times when needed.

Do you run races?

Every season we pick goal races and go as a team: start together, kit, photos, and a plan that gets you there.

Can I come alone?

Most people do. Say hi to the coach and we'll put you in the right group.
