WHO IS THE WORLD'S BEST RACE DIRECTOR?

Road Race Management, MarathonFoto and MYLAPS annually honor the outstanding race director of the year. This award has been called "The Gold Medal of Race Directing" by Bill Rodgers. The 2023 award winner will be announced at the Road Race Management Race Directors' Meeting on December 11, 2023. Our goal is to single out excellence (not perfection) among the nation's estimated 10,000 race directors.

Eligible: Any Race Director, Coordinator, Chief Executive or Chief Operating Officer of a race. You may nominate yourself. Previous winners are not eligible (Click Here for a list of previous winners). 

Criteria for Selection: Nominations must be received by October 20, 2023. Nominees will be judged on several factors, including overall ability, reputation of race, sponsor relations, creativity, and organizational ability. Please be as specific as possible in filling out the form. If you wish to submit additional materials (limit is 2), you may either list links to the materials in the form below, or you may email them as attachments to Jeff Darman at rdoy@rrm.com.
