The Course​

The race has been moved to the country.  The race starts and ends at the founder of Luv-a-Dad's residence and routes through beautiful farmland.  Part of the course runs along an irrigation ditch with the sound of soothing water flowing. Be prepared to run on dirt and asphalt roads.  We will have one water station close to the middle of the race course.  The course is well marked at every turn.

Too Hot to Trot After Party/Festival

Don't think that this event is just for avid runners!  We do have a great course for the serious competitors out there, but we also have plenty of fun for those who aren't the running type.  Join us for food, glitter tattoos, outdoor crafts, an inflatable obstacle course, yard games, water fun, music and more after the race!  All of this is included in your race entry fee.  Want to join in the festival fun, but would rather sit out for the run?  That's fine too!  You may purchase meal tickets at the event and entry to the festival is free.

Fundraising Tips and Tools

All participants are encouraged to fund raise. Luv-a-Dad is a 501c3 nonprofit organization and donations may be tax deductible.​

Here are some tips to get you started.
  1. Start fundraising early.  The earlier you start, the more successful your fundraising campaign will be.
  2. Use the fundraising paperwork and online fundraising page provided by Luv-a-Dad.  Luv-a-Dad has created a means of online fundraising as well as a non-electronic method of fundraising for you.  Please do not hesitated to use the materials provided to you to make your fundraising campaign a success.
  3. Tell all possible contributors what your personal connection is to this event.  Some people have a direct connection with the cause.  If you do not, consider talking with families of fathers battling cancer and learning the daily struggles of those families.  This personal connection will help people understand the importance of this event.  
  4. Share your story with the world around you.  Do not confine yourself to only asking close friends.  Consider distant friends, coworkers, people you meet in the market... You never know who may have a connection with the cause.  
  5. Utilize social media.  Use your Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and other social media sites to share what you are doing.  This allows your friends to "share" and "like" what you are doing so others can contribute as well.
  6. Think outside the box.  Chain emails, snail mail, posters at your local coffee shop, and more imaginative ideas are all worth a try.
  7. Give people options.  Let your story and their personal connection to the cause drive their donation.  Share other ways your supporters can help.  Ask them to volunteer at the event, join your team, or start their own team.  
  8. Keep people updated.  Utilize the Too Hot to Trot Fundraising page.  You can create or join an existing fundraising team.  This page shows your fundraising goal and what has been raised thus far.  After you create your fundraising team, you can give a direct  link for your fundraising page to all your friends and coworkers so that they can stay updated.
  9. Send a personal "Thank You" to each donor.  Let your contributors know that their support is appreciated!
