Volunteer
When you volunteer for San Jose Half Marathon weekend, you’re doing much more than just handing out a race packet or water cup. You’re helping create the experience that thousands of runners, walkers, spectators, and families will remember long after race day is over. From packet pickup and athlete check-in to course support, hydration stations, finish line operations, and crowd engagement, volunteers play a critical role in every part of the San Jose Half Marathon & 8K experience. Whether you’re encouraging first-time runners, supporting elite athletes chasing personal bests, or helping participants cross the finish line in downtown San José, every volunteer contributes directly to the energy, safety, and community spirit that make race weekend possible.
As a volunteer, you are the heartbeat of this event!
