I know we all already have a lot on our plates, but.... if you have some time (ha-ha, I know) and a long email distribution list (to blast friends), you could very easily set up a fundraising page!

To do this, you basically follow the fundraising instructions after you register for the race at: http://www.triforthecureaz.com/

Just to give you an idea, here's a link to my page. The last time I did used this online fundraising feature, I raised nearly $1,000 without every begging for money. It was all done by email. :)
