Stevens Creek Striders
Welcome to the Stevens Creek Striders!
Founded in 1981, the Stevens Creek Striders are an all-ages social trail running group in Cupertino, CA. Every Saturday morning at 8:30, you will find us at the Stevens Creek Reservoir parking lot, eager to spend the morning sharing the trails and each other’s company, often followed by brunch nearby.
Beyond our Saturday gatherings, we organize runs in other parks throughout the year, manage aid stations at several prominent races, and host our own race in September.
Runners (and hikers) of all backgrounds and abilities are welcome, whether you are new to trails or eyeing your next 100-miler. Please do not worry if you think you’re slow – we will naturally spread out during the run but also regroup regularly. No one is left behind, and no one will mind having more time to chat; we are here because we want to spend this time together.

Please join us for the 7th annual Reservoir Run in Stevens Creek County Park on Saturday, September 12th!
The Reservoir Run trail race features a mix of cool shaded single-track, open vistas, creek crossings, challenging climbs, and fast descents.
You’ll be supported by friendly volunteers every few miles, so it’s a wonderful introduction to trail racing for road runners that also promises to be challenging enough for the most experienced trail runners.
After the race, join your fellow runners for a barbecue at the finish line (including plant-based options)!
Registration is open now on Ultrasignup (ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=136213).
Register by August 1st for early-bird pricing.
Welcome Chris !
Reminder : VOGUE shoot is scheduled for next Saturday.
We had a great run yesterday! Two new runners, and some route confusion on the long run just let us relax a bit at Garrod Farms before regrouping (where I also learned that summer concerts are back on, twice weekly through the end of July). Happy trails!
