Please join us in ensuring no one faces their hereditary cancer journey alone. Make your miles count in this exciting event by donating or registering as a participant on TeamFORCE.
There are 3 ways to join TeamFORCE at this event:
1) Be a TeamFORCE HERO!
Hero registration gives you the opportunity to obtain a guaranteed entry into the Chevron Houston Marathon or the Aramco Houston Half Marathon by purchasing your entry at a reduced price ($140 marathon/ $125 half marathon plus processing fees) and making a one-time tax-deductible donation (a minimum donation of $350) to FORCE. Just click the "Participate with this Charity" on this page. Registering in this way will qualify you to receive HERO benefits. You can view a list of the benefits offered by visiting the Chevron Houston Marathon Website.
2) Fundraise for Registration!
Raise a minimum of $250 for the 5K or $500 for the half or full marathon, and the registration cost will be covered by the dollars you raise. No money is required at the time of registration. You will have until December 1, 2024, to raise a minimum of $175. If that amount is not raised by that date, you will not be eligible to participate in this event, and your application for a bib will not be accepted. The total amount of the fundraising requirement will be due by January 31, 2025. Further details will be explained on the registration page.
3) JUST FUNDRAISE! If you obtain your registration as a TeamFORCE HERO, obtain it directly from the Houston Marathon, or you cannot attend and would like to fundraise, please click the link to participate and select the "JUST FUNDRAISE" option. That way, you can set up your own personal fundraising page to send out to your network.
However you choose to join us, we appreciate your partnership in our mission of improving the lives of those facing hereditary cancer. You can visit the FORCE Website at Facingourrisk.org to see all the good things you will be making possible. On behalf of all of us at FORCE, thank you!
