Last Tuesday saw several Stevenage Striders showing off their diamonds on the start line of the final MWL race of 2024! This is known as the MOB match which is a non scoring event with clubs from all 3 divisions taking to the start line. It can be confirmed that the Mob match was a fantastic event! The scenic and challenging run around Welwyn Garden City, followed by well-deserved finger snacks and award presentations was enjoyed by all. After the presentations many stayed on to enjoy the Euros semi final football together.
A huge congratulations to the three Striders who received awards! Their hard work and dedication to training truly paid off.A huge congratulations to
