ABOUT US
Located in Sooke, BC, the Sooke Trail and Road Runners (STARR) are a fun and friendly group of runners - we welcome runners of all abilities. Camaraderie is an important aspect of our group. We are encouraging to all runners - no matter what speed or age.
STARR members participate in the Island Race Series and many other running events. We run at whatever speed we are able and willing to go.
Individual members are welcome to host fun runs which may include inviting other clubs to join us. These runs vary in distance and terrain and are usually followed by refreshments at the host’s home or location selected.
Members may participate in as many of the activities as they like! We don’t all run at the same pace, but we all finish at the same place.
Mission Statement: "STARR is a club dedicated to promoting running, fitness and just plain fun. Our members run, hike, walk, and swim --it is about good fun and good people."
New runners are welcome to join us. Come and try us out before deciding if you would like to become a member. Just come to one of the group runs on Thursday and Saturday.
Membership fee is $20 per year, due in January of each year.
Membership benefits include:
Race Registration for the Thetis Lake Relay team event
Option to purchase STARR apparel at club rates
Retail discounts (various Victoria area running stores)
Right to vote in meetings and club elections. Paid members get to vote on anything we vote on.
