Membership FAQ
Why should I get an individual ATRA membership?
With your membership you receive a subscription to Trail Times and to our e-newsletters. We also have an agreement with Ultrarunning magazine for our membership – discount on the annual subscription rate for new subscribers. If you renewed at the “premium” level, you will receive one year of Outside print publication (which is quarterly in 2025 – spring, summer, fall, and winter – with your membership (cover price is $9.99 per issue).
If I’m an ATRA premium member, do I get Outside immediately?
We send in memberships to Outside Interactive Inc. once per month, so your lag time will be between four and six weeks, but you will receive an entire year with your membership.
What other benefits are there for individual trail runners?
We have weekly giveaways for race entries, magazine subscriptions, gear, and products. Over the past five years, we have given away more than $37,000 worth of items to our ATRA members.
What are the benefits of joining ATRA as a race director?
- We list your race in our searchable online events calendar and you can update your listing with photos, descriptions, and more

Is there insurance for individual trail runner members?
At the present, ATRA does not offer an individual insurance package.
