RUNNING TO SUPPORT THE KATIE LYNCH FOUNDATION

Looking for extra motivation? Training for a running event is hard work. What better way to stay focused and enthusiastic than to ensure your efforts have a lasting impact? We are looking for Charity Runners willing to take on the additional challenge of raising money for the Katie Lynch Foundation. Charity Runners can be Half Marathon, 5K or Purple Shoes Challenge Competitors.

Charity Runner Benefits

• Fabulous prizes for the top fundraisers – stay tuned for details!
• Weekly emails including training, fundraising and motivational tips.

Fundraising Minimum

It is up to you. In keeping with Katie's motto "Parva Sed Potens" (Latin for "small but powerful") every effort counts. Being a Charity Runner is about more than raising money. It is about creating awareness and living your life in accordance to Katie's belief that "every human being is worth it."
