OUR TEAM
Volunteer with us!
Our volunteers are the heart and soul of Intermountain Endurance — we truly couldn’t make these events happen without your incredible support and energy!
Volunteering at a multi-day ultra event is a one-of-a-kind experience. Whether you're cheering runners on at aid stations, marking those beautiful mountain trails, or working behind the scenes to keep everything running smoothly, you'll be part of an amazing, tight-knit team that turns every race into something truly special.
Come for the excitement of the race... stay for the lifelong friendships, shared stories, and strong sense of community that build along the way.
No matter how much time you can give — whether it's a single shift, a full day, or several days — we'd be thrilled to welcome you into the Intermountain Endurance family!

About Us Intermountain Endurance
Welcome to Intermountain Endurance — where the mountains meet unbreakable spirit.
Founded in the heart of Northern California’s rugged backcountry (headquartered in Burney, CA), Intermountain Endurance is a passionate community of ultra runners, trail runners, burro racers, and outdoor enthusiasts who believe that the greatest journeys begin where the pavement ends.
Our Story
We started with a simple vision: to create unforgettable, challenging events that push athletes to discover what they're truly capable of — while surrounded by some of the most stunning wilderness the West has to offer. From the pine-scented trails of the Lassen National Forest to the historic paths of the Great Shasta Rail Trail, our races are designed to test your limits and reward your perseverance with breathtaking views, good vibes, and a whole lot of camaraderie.
Whether you're chasing your first trail 5K, tackling your 100th ultra, or leading a burro through the backcountry (yes, we really do that!), there's a place for you here.
What We Stand For
-
Inclusivity for all levels — Beginners, seasoned ultrarunners, walkers, crawlers, and everyone in between are welcome.
-
Community first — Races are only possible because of our incredible volunteers, runners, and supporters who become family along the way.
-
Respect for the land — We’re proud to host events on traditional territories and offer free race entry to Indigenous/Native American runners for any event, any distance, any year.
-
Challenge & joy — We create experiences that are tough, beautiful, and deeply rewarding — physically, mentally, and socially.
Come Join the Family
Come for the race… stay for the friendships, the stories around the campfire, the post-race hugs, and that unbeatable feeling of crossing a finish line in the mountains.
Whether you're lacing up for your first trail run, volunteering at an aid station, marking course, or cheering from the sidelines — we’d love to have you as part of the Intermountain Endurance family.

See you on the trails! 🏃♂️🌲🐴
