INTERNATIONAL. The Moodie Report is pleased to announce that the fundraising site for the inaugural Moodie Multi-National Marathon, sponsored by M&Ms, http://moodiemarathon.kintera.org, is now live.
The site is reciprocally linked to www.HandinHandforHaiti.com, at http://www.handinhandforhaiti.com/updates_details_20100926.html
The site allows participants to register their team, pay the US$300 entry fee, set up targets, sponsor other runners and make general donations. There is also a Bulletin Board and a ‘Spread The Word’ e-mail facility. In addition, Enrolment and Sponsorship forms in PDF formats are available to download.
The travel retail industry has shown strong support for the Marathon, a unique initiative designed to raise money and awareness for the charity Hand in Hand for Haiti.
Around 30 teams have already confirmed their intention to run, while many others have expressed an interest. There is still time to start training and enter a team.
The marathon – to be run in teams of six – will be conducted between 4 and 7 March. Each team member will run one-sixth of a marathon (7.03km), anywhere in the world. Participants can run on treadmills, track or any terrain of their choice – the more exotic the better. Individuals/teams should be self-timed and sent to The Moodie Report for recording. We encourage teams to send pictures of their efforts, in training and on race day, to be published on The Moodie Blog.
Some great prizes will be on offer, including fastest and most valiant team efforts, best location and best uniform. There will also be a major prize for best fundraising effort.
