Volunteering

A great way to be involved

If you enjoy the buzz of race day and the social aspect of being part of an event then volunteering is a great way to be involved.

We’re grateful to everyone that’s helped with our previous races and to those that continue to help us put on a great event. Without volunteers we would not be able to organise events, the support that we have is fantastic and is a big part of the runners’ experience of the day.

Lot’s to feel good about

  • Giving participants a great race day experience

  • We believe in event sustainability and protecting the environment

  • Supporting local businesses as part of our event marketing and event locations

  • Showing people ways to exercise to help with physical and mental health

  • Being part of a team that helps bring a race together and makes it a great success

  • Being with likeminded people having a great day out

    If you would like to be part of a community that supports this ethos please get in touch.

We’ll always support you, we have pre-race zoom meeting and a race day meet up to kick the day off. During an event you’ll be supported by the head marshal, and the Race Director.

There are plenty of ways to help

  • Race Registration - Helping runners check in, allocate race timing chips, help runners with registration, on the day entries.

  • Head marshal - Co-ordinating all the marshals across the event

  • Car parking - Directing drivers to parking spaces, and car parking payment collection

  • Course marshals - Keeping our runners to stay on course, giving them plenty of support

  • Tail runner - Running at the back of the field, safety and re-assurance

  • Water station management - Helping runners fill up water bottles, cups

  • Merch stall - Helping people with merch purchasing

  • Finish line medals - Handing out our eco medals to all finishers

  • General support - To the race director and head marshal
