More than just leading a club run
This is about bringing the Embrace Ultra ethos to life in your area — creating a welcoming, inclusive space where people can run together and feel part of something.
We’re building a growing network of local trail run clubs, and we’re looking for people who want to help expand that community and make trail running more accessible to others.

Where we are heading
The main community hub is mid Kent, with plans to grow into more locations as the community expands.
If you’re based elsewhere & want to start something locally, we’d love to hear from you.
Is this for you?
You don't need to be a coach, an expert or someone who has run lots of ultra marathons
This is for people who:
-
Enjoy trail running
-
Want to bring people together as a community
-
Are reliable and welcoming
-
Want to be part of something that's growing
-
Love what Embrace Ultra do and want to be part of it.
Run leaders will need to hold, or be willing to work towards, a Leader in Running Fitness qualification through England Athletics, and complete the Embrace Trail Run Club onboarding programme — we’ll support you through both.
