Edmonton’s Hypothermic Half Marathon’s are held each year in February. This mid-winter race is one of the Running Room’s premier events in Edmonton. All proceeds generated during this race will go to Nature Alberta to support nature education and wildlife protection initiatives.

What we ask from our volunteers
– Volunteers will be assigned to specific locations along the course and will be responsible for pointing runners in the right direction at intersections or areas of possible confusion.
– Volunteers will work in teams of 2-4 with a car for safety and warmth.
– Volunteers may sit in the car when no runners or walkers are on the route but one person must be out at all times when participants are going by.

Volunteer recognition and appreciation
– Coffee, hot chocolate and snacks will be brought to volunteers a couple of times during the race.
– Following the event, volunteers are invited to join the runners for a buffet lunch at the Highlands club house (no charge to volunteers).
– A big thank you goes out to all those supporting Nature Alberta at this event!

Hope to see you out there!
