runathon
Fundraising distance event
A runathon is a fundraising event where participants collect pledges or donations based on the distance they run.
Common in schools and community organizations, runathons combine physical activity with charitable giving: The elementary school's annual runathon raised money for new playground equipment.
The format follows other pledge-based -athons like walkathons and bikeathons.
