Marshals

We love our marshals - Trionium races could not happen without them.

Trionium marshals get a free place in a future Trionium race (and often get the race goodies as well, if supplies allow).

If you would like to join our Trionium Marshals (no experience necessary - just common sense and a cheerful and 'can-do' demeanor!) please email rob@trionium.com - thank you!

We ask them to do three main things:

1: Look out for the safety and well-being of the runners;

2: Send the runners in the right direction;

3: Give our runners the best support in the world (clapping, cheering, dancing, singing, banter - anything to get them round the course with a smile on their faces!)

Marshals attend a pre-race briefing, and are then allocated positions or tasks, suited to their own situation.

Trionium marshals must be among the very best in the world... but don't take our word for it: this is what the runners have said about our marshals:

Midsummer Munro:

This is undoubtedly my favourite race to date. The marshalls, the bag-pipe player, the anthem, the runners, the scenery and, yes, even the course all made for the hardest and most enjoyable half I have ever done.

I've never experience such enthusiastic marshalls.

Amazing support as always from the marshals: your [early] alarm call would have likely been of a similar time [to us runners] and yet you all had a shout out and a smile for each and every runner !! Thank you :-)

Excellent organisation as usual: The marshals are simply the best, so cheerful.

Very supportive marshals at the well-stocked drinks stations, where life-giving jelly-babies are issued as standard.

The marshals were superb again.

Thanks for the excellent organisation and cheerful marshals.

Thank you to the band of merry marshals for once again showing you set the standard for great races and organisation.
