What Will It Cost
In order to join our team you will need to raise $1000 in donation to World Vegan Vision to be able to enjoy the guaranteed registration in this sold out race.
You will also need to register as a contestant ($135 or $160, payable to NYRR.org)
This makes $1135 or $1160 your minimum financial responsibility. You may raise more than $1000 in donations and donate to World Vegan Vision but $1000 will be a minimum and is required up front as a personal donation which will be refunded once you raise donations of $1000 or more from other sources.
Please let us know if you cannot fundraise on your own or pay on your own. We may be able to assist/sponsor deserving vegan athletes.
Benefits
We may provide some promotional items depending on sponsor participation. Details are still under process.
In addition, our commitment to you will be in the form of a support team consisting of the following people at World Vegan Vision.
- Training guidance and support will be provided by Dr. Shrenik Shah, a vegan physician who has also run several marathons, practicing yoga and meditation.
- Medical information support by Dr. Moiz Kasubhai a vegan physician practicing meditation and a runner
- Nutrition guidance and fitness support by Dr. Kalindi Bakshi (2023 NYC Half Finisher) , a neuroscientist, vegan food entrepreneur and the founder of PlantologyFuel, a practicing CrossFit athlete and practicing meditation
- Avinash Kachhy (2012 NYC Half Finisher) will be the main contact and answer any other questions related to the event
On successful participation in this event on the World Vegan team, you will become a valuable member of the World Vegan Vision family (if not already) and enjoy a special place in all our upcoming events.
Please note that all the support will be via email, a dedicated WhatsApp group and by telephone as required. We do not have a dedicated physical location. You will train on your own or with other athletes of your choice in your locality.
The minimum donation amount of $1000 will be due when the contestant is accepted as a team member and registers as a member of WVV team. You may raise more than the minimum and donate to World Vegan Vision but if you fail to raise the required minimum of $1000 it will be your personal donation.
