Helping hands wanted for the Linz running festival

More than 400 volunteers are involved every year.

Running is not the only way to be active on October 24. Once again this year, many helping hands will be needed behind the scenes for Upper Austria's biggest running event.
When the Linz Danube Marathon takes place on October 23 and 24, around 400 volunteers will be in action. A major event of this kind can only function with the support of many hardworking hands.

Whether it's filling the starter bags, handing out bib numbers or looking after the refreshment stations and relay changeover zones, supporters are needed everywhere. They are the ones who ensure that everything runs smoothly. "For me, it's nice when we can contribute a little bit behind the scenes to the success of the many runners. Even more, I always look forward to seeing the many helpers again every year. Everyone pitches in and creates something great together," says Katharina Gahleitner, a longtime volunteer who is once again looking forward to the big event in Linz.

Anyone interested in becoming part of the Linz Marathon family of helpers can contact linzmarathon@liva.linz.at or call 0732 / 603412.
