Join our volunteer team and become a part of the Runtastic family
Have you ever it been to an aid station and no one was there? Crossed the finish line and no one to give you a medal? Or come to a race and it looked like a ghost town? Our Runners need Volunteers like you!!
Our events require hundreds of volunteers to help ensure runners and spectators get the support they need throughout the day. Volunteering is a chance to give back and provide a valuable service to the running community.
Continuing in 2023, we are bringing some fun improvements to our Volunteer program, bringing you (our dedicated volunteers) new ways to spend volunteer points. Volunteers will now earn points at the jobs they volunteer for at all Runtastic Events! Points can be redeemed for entries into upcoming races for any distance. In addition, points can be used to purchase Runtastic Swag and Race Merch!
New to 2023 – Volunteer Point site! See below for link.
Many Thanks to Mr. Dave Ritchie, who has amazing talents and volunteers like you for it’s creation!
Volunteer Program
- Each volunteer job will have an assigned point value, based on time, length, and difficulty. Points can vary each race.
- Points will be awarded following the end of the race to be redeemed for future events, swag.
- Points will be deducted for tardiness or early departure (if the assignment is finished early, full points will be given)
- Each race distance will have a limited number of volunteer registrations available. Based on first come first serve. Therefore we recommend registering sooner than later.
- Points earned in 2021 and on will not expire (points earned prior to 2021 expire 2 years from when they were earned.)
- PLEASE sign the volunteer book, if not, no points will be given. This is your responsibility. Write legibly.
