Participant registration is now open.
 
Participants make up the bulk of our membership. We ask participants to set a fundraising goal of $250 (Don’t worry, we’ll give you all the tools to help you reach this goal). Then the only time commitment is attending the marathon itself. You can join as an individual participant, start a team, or join an existing team. In the past common teams have included Residence Halls, Colleges, Student Organizations, Greek and Cooperative Houses, Multicultural Groups, and more. If you’re thinking about applying but want more information first, email vpexternal@pudm.org and we would be happy to answer any questions you have.
