Bike Runner/Transporter

You must be 16-99 years old to volunteer for this task.

No volunteer spots remaining.

This volunteer task is full.

Details

This volunteer opportunity involves helping to transport bikes from one triathlon station to another one. This is a very important job because there are a limited number of adapted bikes available and many athletes will be using 1 bike at different times throughout the day. The bike runner will be instructed on where to take bikes throughout the race. Sneakers, the ability to run/walk quickly over short distances, and a fabulous attitude are a must for this position. Volunteers must be available from between 7:30 am (set up) through 1pm (clean up). Please indicate if you would like to be paired with a specific athlete and we will do our best to make this happen.
