The annual Royal Sutton Fun Run is an iconic event in Sutton Coldfield, drawing thousands of runners each year who raise tremendous amounts of money for various charities.

Though this event can only take place if there are enough volunteers!

What's more, if you do marashal at the event, you will receive a free entry for the 2027 event!

Marshals are needed around the course with details below:

If volunteers are being placed nearer to the start, they will need to be on location from 8am, and if they’re further into the course, their arrival time will be slightly later. (exact timings will be confirmed in due course).

General requirements of volunteers will be;

  • Standing on road closures and making sure no traffic is disrupting the event’s flow.

  • Assisting runner/walkers with assistance if they need to withdraw.

  • Directing participants to the main points across the course. E.g; medic tent, water station, start, finish, and toilets.

  • Encouraging the participants throughout the course.

If you are running it feel free to ask a friend/relation to marshal in your place, all they need to do is sign up to GoodGym :)
