EARN A FREE RACE REGISTRATION

Be the VIP: Serve as a Special Race Volunteer

Want to earn a free race entry? The Omaha Running Club relies solely on volunteers to help make their races a success - many dedicated men and women give countless hours to the club each year to make sure we put on the best possible event for our participants.

With these challenges in mind we're looking for volunteers to help with the more technical and demanding aspects of our race coordination. Volunteers for these roles should be able to lift 40lbs and perform basic physical work(tent teardowns, sign pickups, moving boxes, etc). In exchange for your help with these crucial tasks, we will provide free entry into the race event of your choice put on by the Omaha Running Club (Heartland Marathon, Peak to Peak, Bones Run, etc) in addition to all other perks our volunteers receive. 

SUPPORT THE HEARTLAND MARATHON

Volunteer at a Cheer Station

Looking for a fun team-building activity? Cheer stations will be located throughout the course and are a perfect opportunity for corporate wellness teams, school clubs, dance and cheerleading groups, sports teams, community and faith-based groups and more to support the event! ORC will provide the space, you provide the fun! Volunteers are encouraged to make signs, decorate their station and dress in costume. Runners will vote on the most creative and supportive cheer station and the winner will receive a $200 catered lunch from the Heartland Marathon! 

See You on September 22, 2024!
