From the founder

Why I Started Coastline Striders

Coastline Striders founder running on a tree-lined road

Running changed my life, it improved my health, sharpened my mind, and created lifelong friendships. I started Coastline Striders so more people in Ikorodu can experience these same benefits.

We are focused on the Ikorodu community: helping the older generation keep fit and, in the future, inspiring kids. I draw inspiration from Tunde Onokoya’s work with chess and want to achieve something similar with running.

Our vision is to inspire both young and old, showing that running is not just fitness, it’s community, resilience, and joy.
