Create a Team, Raise Money for Kids!
Create a team, get pledges from friends and you can win a prize!
The team that raises the most money will receive the following:
- Your team name engraved on the Runaway Pumpkin Half Mararthon Spirit Trophy presented on Oct 15th. A photo will be taken of your team at that time.
- Your team photo will be posted on the front page of the Runaway Pumpkin Half Marathon for one year! You'll pretty much be famous.
- Your team name will be on the back of the 2017 Runaway Pumpkin Half Marathon shirt at the level equal to the dollars raised. Just think, your team name could potentially be on 1000 shirts! This is making me want to form a team of my own.
How do you raise money? Simple! After you register, go to your Race Roster profile. Halfway down the page, you will find a section titled "Ask for Pledges". All the info you need is right there! Of course, should you need further assistance, I am always here for you! Just shoot me an email and I'll help you out! See, I'm friendly like that.
