Dear Race To Cure Lymphoma participant:

Thank you so much for participating in the seventh annual Race To Cure Lymphoma 5K and 10K races last Saturday, October 6th. We appreciate you clicking here to give us some input on our race. Our goal is to put on the best event possible and feedback from runners like you will give us the information we need to work toward our goal.

We would like to make sure we are doing our best on what we can control. So we ask that you please take some time to answer the following questionnaire about these events - it will take you less than 10 minutes. We have partnered with a local business, One Source, A Marketing & Research Company, to help us understand how we did and what we can do better next year.

Please be assured that your responses and e-mail address will remain confidential. The folks at One Source tell us that responses from each person will be rolled together and your name will never be attached to your responses. So please be honest and tell us what you really think.

Thanks for your input and for your participation in the Race To Cure Lymphoma!
