Since emcees use the voice as a source of living, warming up your voice before the running event will have your throat nodules thanking you, especially when you have back to back running events. Every emcee has their very own warm up tactics. A few voice warm up tips would be rehearsing a few tongue twisters and singing vowel sounds. Besides that, even the way the emcee holds the microphone makes a huge effect. Surprised? The microphone is the extension of the emcee because with just a simple adjusting, the microphone can enhance your sound.
Now, have you ever attempted to show some gratitude to the strong and influential voice while you run?
Keep in mind to always communicate with your emcee prior to your event as the emcee is the storytelling event’s representative. Whether or not you are participating in a fun run, half marathon or full marathon, the number of kilometers does not seem to be a matter with the company of the encouraging voice throughout the entire event.And to runners out there, don’t hold back. Grab those pompoms and cheer with your fellow emcee! Cheering is definitely a form of language between the runners and the emcee. Perhaps also fellow runners, after the race it would be fun to share the experience and emotion with the emcee. The emcee always looks forward to hearing tales from the participants after all.
Running is more than just winning a medal in the end. It’s all about good sportsmanship and feeling great about oneself at the end of day. That’s what every emcee strives to achieve, to ensure every runner feels incredible at the end.
Just like every runner feels when they cross the finish line, the feeling of hosting a running event to every emcee is simply indescribable. To be alongside the runners throughout the whole marathon and to be able to witness the look of satisfaction on their faces as you announce their names is simply priceless. Especially when you’ve taken part in a running event and you know how much sweat and toil is taken to accomplish it. A running event is like a carefully pieced jigsaw puzzle. Miss a piece and the picture feels incomplete. To some, the emcee might seem to be the least bit important puzzle piece but in reality they bind it all together.
