RE: Please sponsor Tom’s Half Marathon!
Hello Sally!
I am doing the Half Marathon and my goal is to finish in XXX hours. It’s a tough goal, and I’m excited to go for it! To support me in making this goal a reality, I’ve chosen to include ABD cause in my racing endeavors. Racing for them will keep me accountable to my training and race day goal and will add a whole special element to this adventure.

Guess what! In April, I am doing my first Half Marathon. As extra motivation and determination to cross my event finish line, I have chosen ABC as my Reason2Race ®.

RE: Stephanie’s 8/20/17 Race Goal
Hello Tom,
I’m racing in my Half Marathon on August 20 in Houston, Texas. For a little motivation, I’ve decided to join forces with an organization that has given me a Reason2Race ® (other than fitness & competition).
My goal is to help XYZ, so every penny I raise during the two months of training goes to a great non-profit – ABC.
If you’ve been looking for a good cause to support, consider joining me in supporting this one as I race to my event finish line.

RE: My Half Marathon Event
Hey Sarah!
In two short months, I am once again “going for it” and doing a half marathon in honor of ABC. Last year you generously sponsored me, and I sincerely thank you for that!
In case you would like support me again in 2017, here is the link to my web page:
