Registration/Fundraising/Teams
REGISTER TODAY for the 16th Annual SPRINT FOR LIFE! - online registration or mail in entry form!
Online Registration closes on Wednesday, May 1, 2013.
Our new, integrated site makes it easier than ever to register as a Sprint for Life runner/walker, create or join a running/walking/fundraising team or fundraise only.
Step #1: Register for the Race:
Select one of the following registration types:
- 5K Competitive Runner (includes disposable timing tag)
- 5K Non-competitive Runner/Walker (time will not be recorded)
- Sprout (age 12 and under – time will not be recorded)
Children 12 and under who wish to receive their times must register as 5K – Competitive Runners. - Sprinting in Spirit (cannot attend, but wish to donate)
- You will receive via mail a race t-shirt, race bib, Sprint for Life pin and shoelaces
- With your permission, we will post your name on our Spirit Board
- Wear your Sprint gear on Race Day wherever you are to show your support for this important cause
- Fundraise Only (cannot attend, but wish to raise funds)
Notes for Corporate Teams:
- Corporations wishing to purchase competitive teams ($300 for the first Team; $200 for each additional Team), and Sponsors qualifying for complimentary teams, please contact gynonccommunityrelations@mdanderson.org
- Corporate Teams consist of 3-5 members: all male, all female, or mixed; usually competing against other Corporate Teams
Notes for Organized Groups:
- Groups consist of 3 or more runners and/or walkers - the more, the better, participating in honor or in memory of someone, or simply to support ovarian cancer research
- Often a mixture of competitive runners, non-competitive runners or walkers, Sprouts (age 12 or under), and Sprinting in Spirit (unable to attend but with us in spirit)
- Prizes are awarded for most members and most Sprint Spirit
- Group Leaders: register yourself and your Group online
- Group Members: register online and select your group from the list after your group leader has registered your group
Step #2: If you choose to be a fundraiser, you can upload a photo, share your story, and invite your friends to donate to your page. If you are pressed for time, you can do this later by following the link in the e-mail you receive.
Step #3: If you are part of a walking/running group, or if you wish to raise funds as part of a group, go to your profile page, select the Teams tab and select your team from the list. If you are the team leader, create your team by entering the Team Name.
