Affiliate Summit Donates $5,000 to the Avon Breast Cancer…

by Missy Ward

The Affiliate Summit East 2010 Challenge, a Nike+ Challenge where Affiliate Summit pledged to donate $1 to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade for each mile run (up to $5,000) through the challenge has hit the goal.

Affiliate Summit has made our $5,000 donation to the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade.

But the challenge is still running through August 13, 2010 for any runners interested in affiliate marketing bragging rights.

There are currently 75 folks involved in the challenge, and the top ten runners have tallied 2,280.10 miles so far.

Overall, there have been 5,437.83 miles run by all of the participants.

Shawn is at #15 right now (see his Nike+ profile) with 151.63 miles, and is hoping to hit the top ten by Affiliate Summit East 2010. I'm in 41st place — not too shabby considering I was down and out with pneumonia.

Here are the top ten runners, as of July 1, 2010.

This is an invite only challenge, so that we don’t have a bunch of random people joining. If you’d like to participate, shoot us an email.
