Team Friendship NYC Full

How it Works
 
We know new things can be scary. Don’t worry! Team Friendship will be at your side every step of the way. We’ll be more overprotective than a first-time mom at preschool orientation day. 
  1. Upon registering, you’ll receive a personal fundraising page (yay!). It’s not your name on a building (yet), but it’s still pretty cool.
     
  2. Next, you’ll get a training plan from Coach Chaim, our very friendly and very dedicated coach. You’ll also get Coach’s weekly emails with training tips, tricks, and the occasional dad joke (we apologize in advance). 
     
  3. And of course, we won’t leave you out in the cold when it comes to fundraising. We’ve got tried-and-true fundraising tools and methods, which we’ll share with you in our fundraising guide. You’ll also get to know your personal CFO, Coach Ella, who will share the ins and outs of fundraising to make sure you’ve got your fundraising down pat.
     
  4. Celebrations: From a pre-race team dinner to breakfast on the run (literally) to post-race celebrations, you can be sure to feel accomplished and celebrated for your amazing achievement.
     
Event Info
So, the race experience looks a bit like this, but just a lot more magical in real life: 

Thursday Evening: Bring All. The. Energy! Load up on dinner, hear personal stories from Friendship Circle members, go crazy, and get pumped for an incredible run!

Sunday Day: Race day! Start your morning with some pre-race fuel and last-minute stretching before heading to the starting line with your team family. Run past the pumping Team Friendship cheer spot where you'll be cheered on by friends and fans.
