About the Community
We run an emerging, supportive online trail running community on Reddit centered around low-pressure movement, mindfulness, real-food fueling, and injury-free running (no elite PR-chasing or rigid pressure).

- Monthly AMA (Optional/Flexible): Host or co-host 1 monthly Ask-Me-Anything thread or structured Q&A topic.
- Estimated Time Commitment: ~2 to 3 hours total per month.

- Certified Running/Ultrarunning Coach: (UESCA, RRCA, CSCS, or equivalent experience/background).
- Communication: Strong, empathetic written communication style—able to explain form and movement simply without heavy jargon.
- Culture Fit: Passion for inclusive, non-competitive running culture.
Pay & Perks
- Budget: $100 – $150 USD per month flat retainer (paid monthly via PayPal, Venmo, or your preferred platform).
- Self-Promotion: You will receive an official "Resident Coach" flair/badge on the subreddit, and you are welcome to include a subtle link to your personal coaching website or 1-on-1 services at the bottom of your guides.
