Thinking about a great way to give more intention, inspiration and commitment to your Running Training? Looking for that extra motivation that will make you a real Hero in your community? Well, check these 7 reason why you should get and Sign in for the Run for a Reason program of #houmarathon or #HouHalf 2019 as soon you finish to Read this:
1) INVOLVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY: Make everybody around you involve with your cause. You're giving a great opportunity to let the people know about the nonprofit Organization you're supporting and how everybody can get involve too giving a donation and supporting your hard work on those miles. More people know about your campaign, more ideas or may be sponsors can get on your way!
2) GET FAMOUS AND INVOLVE COMMUNITY: Go to your gym, Yoga studio, or any Fitness place you go ( or may be try something new) and ask about possibilities to make social events supporting your Cause. May be social runs with your running friends, this is a great way to meet new people, and again: New ideas or sponsor will come on the way.
3) LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT FEELING: You're raising money for a nonprofit organization, you're giving back to your community, may be helping for Health, children, community, animals, etc, FEEL GREAT!!! You're a HERO, you're training very hard for an amazing cause and at the end all that time will feel amazing, you have to feel so proud of you being a hero for your community helping so much though something that you love and challenge you. I have ran three times for a reason with #HouMarathon and believe me, that moment when you crossed that finish line is just GLORIOUS! You deserve it, be proud of yourself.
4) INSPIRE: No matter what type of nonprofit organization you support, you are inspiring others. All those who knows you, the new people you will know through your way, training or asking for donations, the children in your family, friends or may be the kids, patients if you're supporting for health or new generations, everybody is watching every step of your way. Share your pictures during your training with them, on social media, everywhere! Feel great and proud of what you're doing and show it all the time in all the ways possible.
5) CREATING NEW VOLUNTEERS: For those people who may be are not available to make donation, you can ask them to be volunteers for any of your events to raise money or to be volunteers for the events of your organization, get them involve in other ways and actually giving their time and knowing face to face the organization that you chose, it's a great way to donate and give back to the community. I ran for Houston Food Bank on 2016 and I have friends who volunteered with me that year who felt in love with this organization and the way they work and fight hunger and still volunteer every time they can. You're making a loop, a new wave of volunteers in your city, you're growing up the power of being a Hero and giving that power to others too. Can you be more amazing?
6) CALL YOURSELF AN AMBASSADOR : Meanwhile you're raising money for a nonprofit organization, you're representing them, in all the best ways as possible, feel proud about it, you're representing no just the organization, you're representing those on need too, those who needs of that organization to have a better life, a better health, may be people really struggling about life and so many conflicts. You have the flag, be a leader and show everybody that everybody can help the same way as you or so many other ways, inspire yourself, you're a hard worker ambassador.
7) RUN FOR A REASON: If you don't have any motivation after the other six reason, let me ask you just to Run for something more than miles, something that inspires you, worries you, moves you. There are 64 nonprofit organizations to Run for a Reason through #HouMarathon or #HouHalf just do it once and live the experience of running all those miles for a different reason that a medal, a picture at the finish line, do it for something more that is not you it's a lot of people that work very hard on these organizations and always, always need a hand, volunteers or just people like you, a running lover to give that extra motivation for yourself, it's time to become a HERO, Sign up now if you don't do yet here: https://events.hakuapp.com/events/adb50e4b4a9971330515/charity_partners
