Steamboat Classic

Building Race Awareness Through Social Media

THE GOAL

Use social media to build race awareness, drive participation, and strengthen the connection between the Steamboat Classic and its running community.

THE STRATEGY

I built a social strategy around five core content pillars:

RACE: Registration, race details & reminders
TRAIN: Training tips & preparation
COMMUNITY: Runners, groups & local stories
EXPERIENCE: Behind-the-scenes & race-day energy
PARTNERS: Sponsors & local collaborations

THE EXECUTION

I led content strategy and execution across reels, graphics, partnerships, and event coverage to build awareness and excitement leading into race day.
