Volunteer Incentive Program

Automatic complimentary entry towards a 100M, 100K, 50K, 20K, or 10K event

Leading Roles and minimum hours are determined by the Volunteer Director and may vary from event to event. These roles typically involve positions that are crucial to race operations, runner safety, or managing other volunteers. A Leading Role may be specified in the shift description or identified at the end of the shift when selecting the volunteer incentive.

Eligibility

• To be eligible for incentives, you must be registered in Volunteer Local, our event volunteer database. Please make sure you check-in at the beginning of each shift and check-out at the end of each shift. If this is not done, we cannot honor your incentives.
• Please contact your Volunteer Director for proper instructions on how to log hours, especially if you are working in a location with limited cellular coverage.

Process

• Volunteers will have up to 30 days from the last day of the event they volunteered at to select their incentive through their profile. Incentive codes will be sent out after this 30 days period has ended.
• Once volunteers receive their code, it must be used within 30 days.

Regulations

• Volunteers may select a discounted or complimentary entry for any event occurring within 12 months of the event they volunteered at.
• For example, volunteering at a 2026 event makes you eligible for an event taking place anytime through the following year’s event (e.g., Speedgoat 2026 → Speedgoat 2027).
• All selections in Volunteer Local are FINAL and cannot be changed.
• If a distance or event is sold out, entries are no longer available. Please note that these codes are valid for general entries only and cannot be used toward charity bibs.
• Withdrawal Policy: Entries are non-refundable and non-transferable. This includes transfers to another year, race, or transfers to another runner.
• There are no partial credits. Volunteers must work the entire shift to be eligible for incentives.
• Volunteers can choose to roll over hours and volunteer at another North American UTMB event to earn higher levels and incentives. Please note that hours expire at the end of the year.
