Don’t Leave It Too Late To Start
The sooner you make regular exercise part of your life, the better your chances of reaching your 80s fit, strong, active and in good health. Y Striders has several members who are living proof: after attending sessions regularly for around 20 or more years, they remain fit, agile and mentally alert.
Y Striders offers walking, running and strength classes throughout the week giving plenty of options to start, maintain or improve your levels of fitness. Apart from our social club activities many Y Striders share interests outside of the club, like cycling, swimming, Mahjong and casual walking.

All settled in at Melville Sports Club
Thanks to the tireless efforts of our president and committee we have made a seamless transition to our temporary clubrooms at Melville Bowling Club while we await construction of new premises at Troy Park. Walking, running and strength classes continue as before but in a new location at 592 Canning Highway, Alfred Cove. Our club times don’t clash with the bowling club and they have been most welcoming.
We had a big turnout for our AGM on Saturday and after the warm up and walk, president (Jennie) and secretary (Jenny), both ensured the formalities and information required for an Annual General Meeting of our “not for profit” club were covered in an efficient friendly manner. Everyone then moved the chairs and we enjoyed the fellowship Y Striders is best known for with a shared breakfast all members contributed to.

We Are Moving
For the last 29 years, Y Striders have been meeting and exercising at Troy Park. The club rooms, which have stood for more than 60 years, are now showing signs of age and deterioration. The City of Melville is in the process of demolishing and constructing new facilities.
On the 19th of September, Y Striders will temporarily relocate to the Melville Sports Club, 592 Canning Highway Alfred Cove for the time the construction takes place, which looks like being a year or more.
The Melville Sports Club looks perfect for us with all the amenities we need and only a kilometre along the riverfront from our existing Troy Park clubrooms. There will be new walking and running routes to experience. Sessions remain the same, with strength and walking on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, running and walking on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday morning at 7am. Y Striders activities will fit in well with the bowling club activities which are mostly in the afternoon.
We are still the same club and we will still be having fun, fitness and friendship in our new location. Come and join us for a 4 week free trial by checking out our web site.

Trainers Annual Award Winner Is…….

The weather was perfect for Y Striders annual walk/run along the river from Bicton to Fremantle. After a 7.45 warm up with trainer Deb we were off walking, running and chatting and eager to get back to breakfast in Ros’ beautiful garden.
Everyone contributes and as usual there was more than enough to eat for the over 45 enjoying the garden atmosphere. Then the time came for the main reason we were there – the trainers annual award to the club member who they believe has shown “the enthusiasm and commitment to training in order to achieve a personal best.”
A quiet, modest and consistent attendant over the last 26 years, Leonie has participated in 130 fun runs and other events and background support in the club. After illness earlier in the year she worked at building up her training to again run with her running buddies at club. Her determined dedication was noticed by our trainers and she is an inspiration to many. Congratulations Leonie!

Happy Birthday To Us
Y Striders recently celebrated 29 years as a club. Looking back over the years we see we have grown in numbers but also in activities. Starting as a walking and running club, we now also offer five strength sessions with a trainer each week.
We could say our real strength is our shared belief in keeping active, with several informal groups getting together regularly for bike rides, swimming, walking and Mahjong games outside of club times. Because we know socialising is just as important for wellbeing as physical activity, it’s great to share fun and laughter with exercise and often a coffee afterwards.
Over the years we have enjoyed annual long weekends down south, walking trips interstate and even to New Zealand. Let’s all grow from strength to strength – check our adventures over 29 years and join Y striders. Go to http://ystriders.org.au/membership/4-week-free-trial/

See What You Are Missing?
Early morning with Y Striders is such a beautiful time of day. In winter it’s cosy in bed, but you know if you leap out and go to
Y Striders you will be rewarded with the most beautiful sunrises and the burst of energy you get from early morning exercise or walking – not to mention the coffee and chatter with friends after.

We have our club and trainer with strength training at Troy Park in Attadale and walks or runs along our peaceful Swan River foreshore, where we enjoy views across to the Perth skyline and observe the local birds plus the many moods and seasonal changes to the river and sky. Why not join us for a 4 week free trial?

Margaret River Episode 5 – Nearly Time To Pack Up
Monday was time to try other activities that haven’t been fitted in, so it was off to Amaze’n for mini golf, (or getting lost within the high hedges) in the maze. Some Y Striders are quite competitive, even at mini golf 😉
The Raptor Centre was something different to check out while others explored further afield to Augusta, Hamelin Bay or back to Cowaramup, saying it was research for future trips - or was it wineries, shopping, lunch and coffees they were researching?
All good things must come to an end and Monday evening found some at the gazebo for farewell drinks and others exhausted in their cabins or vans eating leftovers and packing for Tuesday’s departure.
Most were on the road on Tuesday after another memorable
Y Strider weekend. Thanks to our volunteer organising team – it couldn’t have happened without you.
