I started completing in the Ultra Challenges, and after taking in part in a few I decided to join the Cheer Squad to help and celebrate others achieving their goals. The atmosphere is always amazing, and it’s like being part of a big family – I’ve made friends for life through being part of the Ultra Challenges.
Our Cheer Squad are an amazing bunch of energetic, passionate, and fun individuals – many of whom have taken part in an Ultra Challenges themselves, and are now using their experience to motivate others. We’re looking to grow the team in 2021 – if you can give a few hours, a full day, or a whole weekend to help others -at our finish lines handing out 000’s of medals and cheering on Challengers. You will join our team of like minded individuals & have a lot fun!
Trek Masters are fit & active volunteers who give their time to helping others along the actual routes, and bring their own deep experience of Ultra Challenges and a passion for helping others to their finish line. As a Trek Master you’ll be part of a close knit team, and allocated a section of the route to patrol, or to lead groups of participants when the going gets tough, and to support our safety teams during the day or night.
