Athletics Ontario Running Ambassador Application

Are you a passionate runner with strong connections to your local running community?

Athletics Ontario is seeking applicants for the 2025 AO Running Ambassador Program! As the provincial governing body of sport in Ontario, AO's mission is to empower communities to make running fun, safe & accessible for all in Ontario. We are building a team of ambassadors that reflects the strength and diversity of our Road & Trail running communities, from the beginner to the avid ultra marathoner. Our Ambassadors will serve as role models, inspiring fellow runners and motivating aspiring athletes to reach their full potential on the roads and the trails. Ambassadors will be expected to:
  • Create at least 2 Instagram posts per month using the AO Running hashtags
  • Volunteer at least 1 in-person AO event per year (sanctioned races, expo's, etc)
  • Be an Athletics Ontario member in good standing
  • Participate in occasional focus groups / brainstorming sessions pertaining to the growth and improvement of AO Road & Trail
Athletics Ontario will support and celebrate the activities of the Ambassadors through our social media channels and as part of the AO Weekly newsletters. Ambassadors will be given a complimentary AO membership, and also receive AO branded apparel to rock in their next training run or race. Apply as an AO Running Ambassador and join a team that is For you. For all. For LIFE! (Application closes April 30th)

*NOTE: Please only apply if you a resident of Ontario and are over 18 years old
