How does the application process look like?
The application phase starts on Saturday, February 1st and ends on Sunday, March 16th. All applicants will be notified until April 1st whether they have made it into the team or not.

Who can apply?
In general, all recreational athletes older than 18 years are eligible to apply. Currently residents of 14 countries are welcomed to participate in the program: Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Spain, the United States, Canada, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Belgium and the Netherlands. Can’t find your country of residence? Due to our current capacities, we are not able to offer the program in more regions of the world. However, the country selection can change from year to year, so stay tuned!

What are you looking for in my application?
Through your application, we’d like to learn more about your personal motivation, future projects and trail running experience. Your social media presence also gives us a brief idea of how you communicate and engage with your community. One thing’s for sure: The clearer your profile is, the better your chances to be selected!

What are we expecting from a DYNAFIT Trailhero?
We are looking for inspiring, charismatic and motivated trail runners with an active mindset who want to make an impact within their local community. Trailheros are expected to show presence at key brand activations, initiate independent projects and proactively share their experiences with their community through social media.

How long am I part of the Trailhero team?
From the moment of selection, latest April 1st, Trailheros are part of the team until the new application process begins (End of January 2026). After this period, every Trailhero must apply again to possibly continue the partnership for another year.

Can I wear 3rd party products?
As a DYNAFIT Trailhero you represent our brand and receive a full head-to-toe outfit. Therefore, we are expecting you not to wear any products from direct competitors on any brand-related occasions. This especially applies to apparel, footwear and trail running equipment. Brand commitment and professionalism are obligatory for us!
