Mentors are the heart of Fleet Feet’s Training Programs. Your role supports beginners, returning runners, and walkers in achieving goals they may have never thought possible. You’re a motivator, cheerleader, and consistent presence in their running journey. It is incredibly rewarding to help other achieve their running goals.
What is a Mentor?
A mentor is someone who volunteers their time to support participants through encouragement, accountability, and positive energy. You don’t need to be an expert, you just need to care and show up consistently.
