Hello! We are happy to know you are interested in being a Get Fit Clovis Fitness Ambassador.
Get Fit Clovis is a fitness campaign, launched by the Clovis Roundup Newspaper, to empower people in the Clovis community to strive for a healthy lifestyle. By facilitating meet ups and providing information about the local goings-on in the fitness industry, Get Fit Clovis serves as a support group for those who desire a healthier lifestyle.
We want to inspire people to achieve their personal fitness goals and promote positive lifestyle change. We believe even the smallest change—whether it is walking 20 minutes on your lunch break or choosing fruit instead of fries—can have a big impact.
Throughout our first few months we have already seen the growth within the campaign and we would like to extend an invitation to others to join and help grow our vision.
We are looking for fitness ambassadors.
The fitness ambassadors will be given incentives for volunteering like free GFC apparel, exclusive physical training opportunities with a several local gym owners (Doc’s Gym, 83 Elite Athlete Training, Undoubted Training and Fulton Yoga Collective to name a few), and networking with prominent fitness influencers.
Winchell Cove 10k/10mile Trail Run follows a great route along the shore of Millerton Lake around Mckenzie Point and into Winchell Cove. The 10k course is great for those looking to explore trailrunning for the first time, it has minimal elevation change (hills) and stunning views from the single track trail. The 10 mile route takes you further into and around Winchell Cove with a couple good hills along the way. The 10k is walker friendly. The course is out and back.

About the birthday boy:
Miles Alexander started running cross country at Maple Creek Elementary in the 4th grade. He continued through his 8th grade year at Granite Ridge Intermediate where he competed at the Mt. SAC Cross Country Invitational. Miles is now a part of the Bad News Bears Running team and occasionally participates or volunteers at local races. This year, he completed his first half marathon.
Miles has one younger brother, a mom and dad, and 2 dogs. His other passions include drawing, singing, performing magic, and skateboarding. He is a native of Fresno and likes giving back to his community. Since he absolutely enjoys running and working with kids he came up with the idea to hold his first birthday race back in 2012 with the help of his running team. He’s donated about $5,000 to the Poverello House.
