Muscles for Myeloma: Team Salt Lake City, April 30, 2016

Join Muscles for Myeloma Team Salt Lake City!

Saturday, April 30, 7:30 am

We are joining the popular Thanksgiving Point Tulip Festival 5K (you can also join the Half Marathon or Kids 1 mile run) in Lehi with a Muscles for Myeloma team. Here's how to join us to run in honor of myeloma patients and for myeloma research.

1. Create a Muscles for Myeloma Page

. You can register with or without a shirt, but we recommend you register with one so it's easier to find your fellow teammates. Join the Muscles for Myeloma Team Salt Lake City when you register to see who's joining this event. Once you've registered, you can personalize your page by adding a photo or uploading a video. If you'd like to join us for the whole campaign, describe on your page how you plan to get fit in during March and April to support myeloma patients who need a little extra motivation to get fit for their best care.  

2. Invite Family/Friends to Sponsor You

Invite your friends to sponsor your walk/run or fitness goal using your new page link. You can send them invitations to sponsor you by email, Facebook or Twitter. They can make an immediate donation or pledge per minute you plan to exercise.
