Hope Marathon "One in Five" Team Relay

Hope Marathon "One in Five" Team Relay

Join us for a parking lot tailgate followed by a team marathon relay. The “one-in-five” stands for 1/5 individuals experience a mental health run-in, challenge, or issue in a given year.

We’d love to have anyone come out and support. We currently have one full team and are looking to add others. If you’re interested in pulling a team together, I am more than happy to help walk through details. We also plan on bringing some tents, food, and drinks out to the event (if we can) and host a little tailgate. The fun part.

If you want to pull a team together, feel free to register as Windy Willow Foundation 2, 3, etc. Each person can pay individually (don't have to gather everyone's money as the "captain") and “join” the captain’s team. The cost of each runner is $43. We have a discount code “WINDYWILLOW21” which will cut that price to $33/person. Each member gets a t shirt and I believe a medal (could be per team). Again, happy to aid in this sign up process.
