    Have done a couple in different places and there's always a really great supportive atmosphere...if you're new to running it's a good place to start. Ran my first one in memory of my brother, and more recently for a work friend, if you take part I'm sure you'll get a lot out of it .

    Are you talking Relay? It's easy to get people to sponsor you. Send a bunch of emails through the participant center and send FB messages to everyone with a link on where to donate and the money will roll in. I did that and in 13 day's I raised over $1400 :) Check out my profile pic... He's the cutest pet contest winner here in our city. You could do something like that. :)

    I use the online sponser page and emailed it round to all my friends... also going to do a cake sale at work nearer the race.

    I have done the race for quite a few years now and this year I plan to run the whole 5k, so I have been doing the c25k coolrunning programe, its really good :)
