I’m so thrilled to announce that I’ll be continuing as a BibRave Pro for 2022! From my social media to my blog, I absolutely LOVE to talk about BibRave and I’ve been a fan for a while now, even before I became a Pro. It’s a great resource for runners of all abilities and types to discover and share their race experiences and reviews, from your local 5k to the ultras and multi-sport events on the other side of the globe.
If you love running and engaging with other fanatics on social media, or you’re a BibRave user looking to get more involved, the applications to join our amazing ambassador community are NOW OPEN until November 1st!
Here are my Top 5 reasons why I love being a BibRave Pro!
1 - Running Races and Product Testing
Want to have your race entry fees covered? Want to try out new running gear? Who doesn’t!? As a BibRave Pro, you’ll get to participate in in-person and virtual races with your entry fees completely covered, all while repping the orange! It’s a great reason to push yourself outside of your normal comfort zone, all while racing alongside other Pros in the BibRave family! As a Pro, you’ll have the chance to race for free and discuss your experience with a BibRave review. In addition to race fees, Pros have the ability to test out and review a variety of new gear, from shoes and headwear to clothes and nutrition – who knows, you may discover your new favorite running accessory!
2- Your Voice Matters
When I talk about BibRave, I like to summarize the race review portion of the site like this: it’s like Yelp, for races. BibRave’s review network allows runners to share their experiences in the same way someone might write a Yelp review. Was the course challenging? How was the event managed? Did this race offer something unlike any other race? Would you return, or recommend this to a friend? Any runner, regardless if they’re a Pro or not, has the ability to share and review races on the BibRave website. BibRave Pro’s receive special recognition on the site, allowing your voice to reach a wider audience, both on the site and beyond via social media.
3 - Discover Something New
While on my journey to complete 100 half marathons across every state, I’m CONSTANTLY on the lookout for new races in new places, and what better place to discover your next event than BibRave! BibRave Pros hail from just about every corner of the country, and have raced all over the world. You’ll have the opportunity to learn from your fellow Pros one-on-one and maybe even find your next favorite race! Beyond events, the BibRave Pro community is a treasure trove of knowledge, from online meet-ups to share tips to master social media analytics to post-run recovery advice and cross-training techniques, there’s always something going on!
4 - All Are Welcome!
I really love that BibRave focuses on the passion of racing and is welcome to all runners. You can share your thoughts and join the online conversation regardless of how much experience your have or your pace time. Just finished your first ever 5k? Your 50th? Congratulations, share your thoughts in a review! This same idea holds true for the BibRave Pros as well. We represent runners across all ages, backgrounds, experiences, speeds, and distances. We’re power-walkers, ultra runners, triathletes, serial 5k runners, and every distance in between, because at the end of the day we’re normal people who REALLY love running!
5 - The Orange Family
This is hands-down the best part of being a BibRave Pro. You’ll join a tight-knit community of people who are all fueled by a passion for running, and filled to the brim with excitement, encouragement, and support for you! This family is with you every step of the way, from celebrating your highs, to comforting you during your lows. Seeking advice? Need encouragement? We’ve got you! Beyond our wonderful online community, BibRave Pros host frequent race and training meet-ups, workshops, and more! What's better than running a race? Running it with your friends!
These so much to love about being a BibRave Pro! The decision to join the team was an easy on efor me, and if you feel the same, we invite you to submit an application HERE - now open until November 1st!
