Joshua Bendrey – I’m 15 and looking for an individual sponsor to support me throughout my running journey. I started running around 7-8 months and I am currently running a 17 minute 5k with my progress showing that my time decreased approximately a minute a month. Unfortunately, my parents are in a poor financial situation so funding for running shoes is quite difficult. If I receive help with funding, I can promise that over the next few years you will help me achieve my goals of becoming a high level athlete. My running club are supportive with my dreams and I was named athlete of the month last month. Thank you for taking your time to read this.
Key Dates and Timings
I would wish any kind of sponsorship or supplying shoes to last over the next 3 years until I turn 18 mainly. Although, having longer would be excellent because once I turn 18 I hope to be on the way to becoming more of a professional running athlete.
Specific Opportunity Details
I would be massively grateful for funding mainly for shoes, so that I can train without receiving potential injuries. Last week I picked up a minor injury probably due to uncushioned shoes but I am back to running again in a couple of days. Right now, I am running 17:30 in the 5k after no serious training, once I get some good shoes and start a fixed training plan, I am confident in myself to become very high level by the end of this year.
Features and Benefits
By giving me sponsorship support, I will do posts on Instagram and use hashtags to increase visibility of not only my social media, but your company too. I will wear only the gear provided from you guys. When I start winning big events, I will stay loyal to you guys and promote you to the best of my ability. Of course the main people directing the sponsor can come to all my events.
Investment
Flexible - whether this be product support (running shoes) or cash funding.
Other Info
I can deliver incredible performances with the right sponsor to help with shoes. Running is my passion and I am motivated to develop within my journey.
