Call To Action

I hope you enjoy my blog over the next 5 months as I train for Ironman Cozumel on November 25th.

They say nothing in life is free, my blog included. I have chosen a charity to donate the money to instead. This year, my Reason2Race is Team COCI.

The idea is simple, and it involves a commitment from both me and from you.

I have committed to a 22-week training program. All you need to do is commit to donate to Team COCI based on my training volume.

From June 25th through November 24th, I will log every hour that I swim, bike, and run. Each Tuesday morning I’ll publish a new blog post and my training stats to date. On the eve of the race, I will publish final totals. 

Your turn now.

You make a donation to Team COCI based on the final training totals.

If you are ready to commit, then follow these steps.

1.     Decide which training leg you would like to sponsor.
a.     Swim – yards swam
b.     Bike – hours in the saddle
c.      Run – total mileage
d.     Total training hours
2.     Do the math! These are approximate training volumes
a.     Swim 4,000-6,000 yards per week
b.     Bike 9 hours per week
c.      Run 40 miles per week
d.     Train 15-17 hours per week
3.     Send me an email at sabrinahaun@gmail.com with the following info
a.     Your Name
b.     The leg you would like to sponsor
                                                i.     Example. Pledge 50 cents for every mile I run in training. That could work out to be 22 weeks @ 40 miles per week totaling 880 miles run, and a $440 donation!
c.      How much you wish to pledge
4.     Check back every Tuesday morning for the next blog and to see how close I am to reaching my goal to raise $1,500 for Team COCI.
