Volunteer

Do you want to see what the other side of an event is like? Join in as a volunteer!

We rely on volunteers for various race day tasks, such as registration assistance, manning aid stations, marshaling along the course and finish area, and course marking.

Volunteers receive a free race entry for their help: assist at a short course race to earn a free entry to the next short course race, or help at a long course event to earn a free entry to the next long course event.

Running Wild NSW is a nonprofit run entirely by passionate volunteer runners who enjoy seeing others on the trails. We hold an annual AGM to elect committee members, and we welcome anyone interested in getting involved with our events and organisation.
