I. New Balance Becomes the CYCLE Kids Marathon Team Sponsor. As our sponsor, New Balance will be outfitting each of you with a new pair of running shoes. There is a catch though- you have to reach your $2000 fundraising milestone before they will send them to you! Take a look at the New Balance website and pick your favorite shoe- all shoes are fair game. Email me your choice, your shoe size, and where the shoes should be shipped. Feel free to take time to try on shoes at a local store before you email me a decision, no rush. New Balance may be surprising us with more gear and accessories as your training journey unfolds- we'll see!
II. First Team Fundraising Challenge. It is time for our first team fundraising challenge! The challenge will begin on Sunday 12/13 and last until midnight on Saturday 12/18. I will keep track of each of your fundraising totals that week (Previous donations will not count for this challenge. Donations to your fundraising page as well any offline donations mailed to the office will be counted). The top fundraiser will win a prize pack from Polar, including a brand new Polar FT40 Watch/Heartrate Monitor, as well as a hat, water bottle, storage pouch, tote, and jump-rope. Good luck!
III. Welcome Karen! A new team member joined us today- welcome Karen! Karen is a local runner and is looking forward to training with Adriane, Alex, Justin, Jim, and Jen. Please feel free to use the blog to figure out a team training schedule so that you all can run together. Let me know if I can help in any way!
Thank you for all of your hard work- our team fundraising total is already at $3111.30. We have a long way to go to beat last year's total of $70,000, but I know you can do it! Having gotten to know each of you, I am confident that this year's team can reach $100,000.
