Sponsorship Opportunity

Over the next few months, Cori Atkinson will be training for the Capital of Texas Triathlon, which will happen here in Austin on May 28th.  She will be participating as a member of the Central Texas chapter of Team In Training (TNT).  Team members meet almost every day of the week to prepare for the final 1.5km swim (in Town Lake!)/40km bike ride/10km run.  This adds up to a 32 mile event!  In addition to the daily 1-2 hour training sessions, TNT members also commit to raising funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS).  Cori has set a goal of raising $2500, which ensures that 75% will go directly to patient services and research, and the remaining 25% enables fundraising organizations such as TNT to continue.  LLS is a wonderful organization, committed to curing blood cancers and improving the quality of life for current victims and families of victims of the disease.  Cori is already nearly halfway to her fundraising goal, but really needs your moral and financial support to make it to the finish line.  Please visit her website:  www.active.com/donate/tntctx/CoriAtkinson for updates on her training and to donate to LLS.  This is a great time to give generously and improve your karma...or at least next year's tax returns, but any amount helps, so don't be shy to give a small donation and spread the word.  If you would like to give in honor of, or in memory of someone special, let Cori know and she would be happy to pin a name or picture to her jersey on race day.  You can find more information about LLS and TNT at www.lls.org and www.teamintraining.org, respectively.  Finally, if you have connections to any local businesses that may be interested in sponsorship opportunities, or in donating goods, services, or an fundraising event location, please let Cori know!  She can be reached at coriatkinson@mail.utexas.edu.
