Scottie's Fundraising Page

First off, thank you for visiting my fundraising page! There is just a month left before the race and we've already met the original $5,000 fundraising target. As a result of your generous donations and hopes that they will continue, I have increased the funding  target to $7,500.  Let's get this done together and find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis.

August 28th, 2010, I will be participating in the Chicago Triathlon - THE WORLD'S LARGEST TRIATHLON. To make this fundraising effort even better (for you at least), I have committed myself to participating in the Triple Challenge (68 total miles). The Triple Challenge includes:

  1. Super Sprint Triathlon, Saturday
  2. Sprint Triathlon, Sunday (.75k swim, 22k ride, 5k run)
  3. International (Olympic) Triathlon, Sunday (1.5k swim, 40k ride, 10k run)

More information can be found here: http://chicagotriathlon.com/?q=triple_challenge.html

To help me on my way to completing this Challenge, I'm asking for your help - by donating whatever you can to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. You can donate a lump sum or even donate as I train on a $/mile basis! Any and all contributions helps thousands around the world. And donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts. My goal is to raise over $5,000, so help me get there and help find a cure!!!

You can follow all of my training efforts at several sites!

  1. Twitter, at http://www.twitter.com/runscottierun
  2. Athlinks at http://www.athlinks.com/racer/50454284/Kristen-Linscott.aspx 
  3. Loopd at http://www.loopd.com/Members/Athena18/Default.aspx.

Here you can find pictures, upcoming events, times and results, favorite products and sponsorship information. Help me help find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis!

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too! You can also email me at klinsco@gmail.com if you have any questions, or anything at all! Also, if you'd like to participate in the triathlon along with Miles for Cystic Fibrosis, let me know and I can help you get the process started!
