Volunteer Outlaws
Trail Outlaws events are safe and successful thanks to the help of our volunteers. These are people who offer their time to ensure our events run smoothly and are enjoyable for everyone. Whether you have experience, or are completely new to volunteering, we would love you to join the team at one or more of our events!
Volunteering will give you an insight into the teamwork that brings events like these together. You will witness the challenge and reward of the trail running experience and meet like minded people. If your own training has not gone to plan, or if you are injured, you can still enjoy the race day buzz!
What we need for events
We need a team of volunteers who are willing to smile and encourage runners as they tackle our courses. Available roles include.
- Marking out courses prior to events.
- Registering runners before the race and distributing race numbers.
- Kit checks.
- Marshalling to support runners in navigating the course.
- Dispensing food, water, and cheerful encouragement at check points.
- Recording race numbers at the finish.
- Distributing medals and / or race t-shirts.
We also need race sweepers on foot and bike to help out at the back of the pack. These volunteers take down event signage, ensure the safety of the runners at the back, and relay information to race HQ.
