Track & Field
Welcome to Track!
Since 1972, Cascade Striders has welcomed athletes with all athletic abilities and talents.
For the 2026 season, we are only supporting long distance athletes. We will be focusing on the 800 and 1500, though athletes will have opportunities to run the 400, 3000, and 2000m steeplechase.
While we do not require a try-out, we DO require ALL of our athletes to be able to run one mile without stopping, and come to practices and meets prepared to be challenged, have fun, work hard, and be respectful of coaches, parents, and teammates.
Runners from ages 7-18 can register, regardless of whether or not they are new to Striders, or returning runners.
We practice three times a week, generally on Mondays and Wednesdays from 5-7pm, and Saturdays from 10am to 12pm.
First the first two months of the season, we will be practicing at both Wilburton Hill Park and the Lake Washington High School Track, moving exclusively to the track in May.
We participate in up to eight track meets during the season, with all registration fees covered by the team.
