My personal message:

Hey Everyone,

Welcome to The GoodLife Challenge fundraising site! This page was created to simplify the fundraising process and allow sponsors to make donations online.
 
This year along with our road race team we have a team of GoodLife Challenge walkers that will be participating in the Falmouth 5K Walk on the Saturday of race weekend. As many of you know, our inspiration for this walk is Mark Pegoraro, who passed away this past March after a valiant battle with cancer. Mark organized teams for the road race the past couple of years, for family friends whose lives had been affected by the disease, and we have decided to carry on in Marks philanthropic spirit for as long as we can as the GoodLife Challenge Team. We all know that Mark would have loved to have seen these traditions being carried on and expanding with this years addition of walkers.  Our goal this year is $5,000, which will be given to MGH where Mark was treated, for research in colon cancer. With you help and support, we hope to reach this goal in time for the Aug 8th walk!
 
If you are sponsoring a specific walker there is an option to post a message to them while you are making the donation or you can leave words of encouragement to the team as a whole.
 
Thank you again for all of your help and support!
 
The GoodLife Challenge Team
