PARTICIPATING AS A TEAM
Team Brandon Challenge
Take the Team Brandon Challenge and help fundraise for The Next Step Foundation. Raise a minimum of $250 and your team will be awarded with 5 free race entries. View setting up a fundraising team below and get your team started today.
The fundraising team with the highest donation will be recognized as a part of the award ceremony with a prize for each team member.
Participating as a team without fundraising
The initial member registering for the race will be able to create their team during race registration. Additional members will then select their team from the team dropdown.
Setting up a fundraising team
Do not initially register for the race and instead go to the sponsor form to get started recruiting donors/sponsors.
View beneficiary under things to know for information you can share about Team Brandon and The Next Step Foundation to help you with your fundraising efforts.
Once you have completed fundraising, submit your team’s sponsor form by mail or email and mail checks as indicated at that bottom of the form.
Upon receipt of your qualifying submittal, The Next Step Foundation will issue a promo code to you by email, good for five free race entry registrations that you and your team will then use to register into the race.
All donations made as a part of the Vow to Drive Sober® Run Team Brandon Challenge will help special needs families obtain running chairs, spread the Vow to Drive Sober® message about the life-altering effects of drinking & driving, and inspire families to get healthy by creating more stimulating environments for their loved ones.
Competing as a team
Each team member’s race result will indicate their team name, so you do not need to compete or qualify for team results to be recognized as a team.
To compete, you must have at least five members in the same race category. Your team can compete in multiple race categories by having at least five members in each. Combo pack team members count once in each race category.
A team qualifies for group race results in a race category when it has at least five members with valid race results. That team’s top five qualifying members in the race category are used to compute the team’s overall placement.
Team up with a special needs athlete
If you would like to learn about pushing/assisting a special needs athlete on race day, contact Cari @ 602-619-5558.
Join us at our new Arizona Falls, Herberger Park location in 2021 in the prestigious Arcadia neighborhood in central Phoenix, Arizona. The new 5K and 1-Mile courses boast fast, flat routes on groomed dirt paths with minimal elevation changes of approximately 10 feet. The 5K course is point-to-point, and the 1-Mile is out and back. Consider the combo pack option and do both distances on race day. Both courses are perfect for attempting a PR (personal record or personal best) or having a fun, leisurely run, walk, or wheel. Running chairs, handcycles, sports wheelchairs, walkers, canes, and sports strollers are welcome on these courses. Leashed pets are also welcome.

Benefiting
Gift to The Next Step Foundation Team Brandon
Gift to The Next Step Foundation Team Brandon Student Race Entry Program
The Next Step Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation that presents its story and educates from the offender’s point of view about the life-altering effects of drinking and driving to schools, corporations, and community groups.
It helps communities learn about the impacts and consequences surrounding the decision to drink and drive and the all-to-often devastating effects, which often extend to many more individuals than the driver who has made the wrong decision to drive drunk.
The Next Step Foundation also works hard to empower parents and caregivers of individuals with traumatic injuries and special needs to improve their health by participating in programs, like Run with Team Brandon, geared toward exercise, nutrition, and self-love.
Everyone is welcome to join and support Team Brandon at any one of the many events it participates in and the Vow to Drive Sober® Run, both of which help bring awareness to the fight against drinking and driving.
All donations help support The Next Step Foundation’s Arizona statewide Vow to Drive Sober® Programs.
All it takes is one message to a listening ear to save a life. Please help The Next Step Foundation and make sure the message goes out to those who need it before a tragedy strikes.
