Share your fundraising experience and goals

We require all runners to commit to raising at least $8,000. When providing information about your plan to meet and exceed this goal, please provide as much detail as possible.
My total personal fundraising goal is:*
Please tell us about your fundraising experience and how you plan on raising the Y's $8,000 minimum.*
Have you participated as a charity runner before*

YesNo
If yes, for whom and how much did you raise?
Does your company offer matching gift program?*

YesNo

Tell us about your running experience
Have you ever completed a marathon before?*

YesNo
If no, what is the longest distance you have ever run?
In the past 3 months what is the average distance you have been running weekly?*
Our goal is to select runners who can not only accomplish the fundraising and training, but can participate in team activities, including Saturday long runs, monthly team meetings, special events (when possible) like our November Dream Big Gala and Auction and Marathon Community Breakfast in March. Is there anything that might limit your ability to participant in any or all of these activities?
