Shenzhen Striders is a community-led running group in Shenzhen that welcomes runners of all levels — from complete beginners to experienced athletes. The group’s mission is to bring people together through running, promote fitness and wellbeing, and make running fun and social in a supportive environment. Here’s what they do: 🏃 Weekly Park Run: Every Saturday morning they host a timed 2.5 km or 5 km run at Shenzhen Talent Park, open to all ages and abilities. Participants gather for warm-ups and then run together, tracking times and results that are shared afterward. 🏅 Challenges & Events: The group organizes running challenges — like consistency distance challenges where teams work toward weekly goals — along with longer 10 km time trials and other community running events. 🗓️ Sunday Long Runs: They also hold longer endurance runs at scenic locations (like Shenzhen Bay paths) with optional distances for different paces. 🌍 Community Focus: Shenzhen Striders is volunteer-run, free to join, and draws a diverse mix of locals, expats, and visitors. After weekly runs, it’s common for members to grab coffee together and socialize, building friendships alongside fitness.
