1. Seeking Ambassadors for New Running App

I'm looking for SF Bay Area runners who are interested in being ambassadors for a new running app. The role of an ambassador would be to promote awareness about this new app through social media and the local running community.

Ambassadors will receive early access to the app, will be featured online, and receive a variety of running-related perks!

This opportunity is open to runners of all abilities, backgrounds, and experience levels. To apply, please send an e-mail with the following information:

• Summary of your running experience

• Link to a social media profile

• Reasons you'd be a great ambassador

You can send this information to [email protected]
