Tell Her She Can Run

The heart and soul of our 261 Clubs around the world are the 261 Coaches who lead the weekly Meet Runs. In this role, the 261 Coaches motivate women to start running and enjoy it! They are role models for our members to lead active, healthy and empowered lives.

This is Your Chance to Become a 261 Coach!

We are looking for you to join our global team of 261 Coaches if you have the ABC of a 261 Coach:

A – You enjoy an ACTIVE lifestyle.

B – You BELIEVE in the transformational magic of running.

C – You’re a CHEERLEADER for fellow women (pom-poms optional).

Basically, you need the desire to pass on your enthusiasm for running to others. You will learn the theory and practice of leading a women’s running group in the 261 Fearless Education Program.

But before you apply, we want you to know more about your journey as a 261 Coach and invite you to join our free online info session.
