Do you love running and/or hiking at the Greenway? Do you have the Greenway's trail races marked in your calendar each year? Do you want to share your passion for the Greenway and our events with others (and get great discounts in return)?
Applications for the 2025 Race Ambassador program are closed.
Welcome to the trail! As a Race Ambassador, your job is to inspire others to get close to nature through low-impact recreation and to promote the Greenway's incredible trail races!Â
Runners and hikers are invited to apply to be an Ambassador for either a single race or for the entire 2025 Race Series (four races).Â
Three of the four races in the Anne Springs Close Greenway race series take place on the Greenway's network of trails. Parking is easy, people are friendly, and the trails are top-notch.
Ambassadors will receive:
Free registration fee for one race in the series.
a 25% off promo code to share with friends, followers, community, etc.
For every 10 registrants who uses your unique Race Ambassador promo code, you will receive a free race entry for an additional Greenway race (for yourself or to gift to someone else).
How to Apply & Qualifications
To apply, submit the form below before 11:59pm on Friday, November 22, 2024 to apply for 2025 races. Ambassadors will be announced December 2, 2024.
Your job is to inspire! Training for your first 5K? Share your journey in a Reel! Tackling your tenth trail half marathon? Spread single-track love on Instagram! No social media accounts? No problem! Let us know how you will promote the races in your own, unique way.
The Greenway will consider all levels of running experience, from beginners to ultra marathoners; however, please only apply if your doctor approves.
Ambassadors Requirements
If selected to be a 2025 Race Ambassador, you are committing to:
Tag Anne Springs Close Greenway on Facebook (@ASCGreenway) and/or Instagram (@ASCGreenway) in at least three social media posts prior to the applicable race, and one post day-of the race. Posts should be solely focused on race promotion, not as a cross-promotion of other brands you may be affiliated with.
If you are not active on social media, Ambassadors should plan to promote the races in their own, unique way with corresponding impact.
Ambassadors will be required to provide links, screenshots or other applicable evidence of their promotion.
Ambassadors are not required to be a member of Anne Springs Close Greenway.
