Those organizing the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon are putting out the call for volunteers to support participants and spectators throughout the event.
The Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon, scheduled for April 1, 2023, is actively seeking volunteers to assist with various roles during the event. Volunteers are needed for tasks such as setting up and breaking down the marathon course, handing out water, cheering on participants, and helping at the finish line. The marathon, which includes a full marathon, half marathon, relay, and 5K, expects around 6,000 runners and relies heavily on community support. Volunteer coordinator, Emily Lee, emphasized the importance of volunteers in making the event successful and enjoyable for all participants. Volunteers will receive a T-shirt, food, and the satisfaction of contributing to a community event that promotes health and fitness.
