Description: IN ORDER TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE LANCE ARMSTRONG LIVESTRONG FOUNDATION, SPECIFICALLY TESTICULAR CANCER (HENCE THE NAME) WE ARE CHALLENGING PEOPLE TO DO AS MANY BURPEES AS THEY CAN FOR THIS CAUSE. DONATIONS WILL BE RAISED VIA ONE OF FOUR MECHANISMS. PARTICIPANTS CAN FORM TEAMS OR PARTICIPATE AS AN INDIVIDUAL. ALSO, IF SOMEONE WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE AS A TEAM, BUT IS NOT CURRENTLY ON A TEAM WE CAN HOOK YOU UP WITH A TEAM AT THE EVENT.
THE GOAL IS TO RECRUIT DONATIONS FOR CONTINUING TO DO BURPEES FOR A SET PERIOD OF TIME. THIS TIME PERIOD WILL BE 2 HOURS. OK, 2 hours of Burpees is like living hell, so we are willing to admit that we will probably not be doing Burpees for 2 straight hours. It will probably operate much like other fundraising events where people engage in a lot of rest and discussion. We are encouraging people to have their teams participating for 2 complete hours! IF YOU ARE COMPETING AS AN INDIVIDUAL, THIS WOULD MEAN THAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO DO BURPEES FOR 2 HOURS STRAIGHT. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE PARTICIPATING AS A TEAM THEN AT LEAST 1 MEMBER OF YOUR TEAM MUST BE DOING A BURPEE DURING THE 2 HOUR DURATION OF THE EVENT.
ENTRANCE COST: $15.00. $5.00 extra (total registration of $20.00) will get you a T-shirt. We will, however, accept donations that are of a lesser or greater amount. All surplus funds will be anonymously donated to the Livestrong foundation. Please select from the pull-down menu whether you'd like to register only for the event ($15.00) or if you'd like to register and get a T-shirt for the event ($20.00). Please make sure to provide your email address and your full mailing address. If you are participating at a satellite location we will need to ship your T-shirt to you. Thanks for your cooperation.
Winner: AT EVENTS LIKE THIS WE ARE ALL WINNERS BECAUSE WE ARE DOING SOMETHING FOR CHARITY. HOWEVER, WE WILL ADD A SLIGHT LEVEL OF COMPETITION TO THIS EVENT TO MAKE IT MORE FUN AND CHALLENGING FOR THE PARTICIPANTS. THE INDIVIDUAL/TEAM THAT COMPLETES THE MOST BURPEES IN THE 2 HOURS WILL WIN A PRIZE.
Just recently, SKINS Recovery Compression Clothing have agreed to sponsor the event by providing gift certificates for SKINS Sport Sox to the team/participants that do the most burpees! Thanks Skins!
ALL (paying) PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE A FREE T-SHIRT FOR THEIR PARTICIPATION.
