Medical Volunteer Opportunities include, but are not limited to, Athletic Training, Attending Physician (including Fellows), Residents, Emergency Medical Services, Medical Logistics, Medical Records, Nursing, Physician Assistant, Physical Therapy, Podiatry and Medical Field Student Opportunities. Medical volunteers are a vital part of the events we produce, lending support to participants on race day.
All volunteers are required to register online individually by Friday, October 3, 2025, at 11:59 pm (U.S. Central Time). All registered volunteers will receive a race week confirmation email with the following details: assignment, check-in location, transportation recommendations, preparation tips and more.
Please note that while the Medical Committee strives to honor positions requested during the application process, the final assignments are determined based on training, background and safety of the event. Volunteers are encouraged to apply as soon as possible to ensure assignment preferences are still available!
