Benefits

Unlimited Consultation

Do you need a quick answer to a race management question? Send your private communication to the Association of Running Event Directors and you'll receive a detailed answer.  Call or e-mail as often as you like.


Discounted Training Sessions

As a member, you will receive a discount on all training sessions and conferences. Some sessions cover a variety of race management issues, others focus on just one issue (such as sponsorship) or are geared to a particular audience, such as charities or park districts. 

Twice-a-month Tips Via E-Mail

As a member, twice each month you will receive an e-newsletter with tips about race management techniques or other information that will help you in your role as a race director or key manager.


Information Exchange

Sometimes you'll want to find out how another race director succeeded with a particular idea or technique. You can send your inquiry to the Association of Running Event Directors and we'll pass it on to other race directors who can share their thoughts with you and tell you what worked and what didn't work at their races.


Cost Savings

You can reduce race production costs by obtaining discounted rates for some of the supplies and services you'll need. Contact the vendors that offer discounts and give them your member number. You'll qualify for a lower rate of payment.
