Why back an athlete

  • A person, not a placement

    Your logo goes on someone you can name, at a race they’ve trained for. Their story comes with it.

  • See it before you bid

    Try your logo on their 3D model, space by space, and know exactly where it sits.

  • Sized for local brands

    Bids start at the athlete’s own minimum. A café, a gym or a club can back someone from their own town.

How backing works

From bid
to race day.

Six steps from your first bid to proof of your logo on the day. You’re never charged for a bid you don’t win.
