Motivation4Athletes.com - Working to inspire athletes of all ages and abilities!
Idea Description
We hope to provide a website that is both motivating and informative. Athletes of all ages need more inspiring stories, quotes and videos to help with training. This website, www.motivation4athletes.com, can be a helpful tool for all athletes no matter their skill level. We also have a training section to help keep track of your training. So whether your trying to run a marathon or simply look good in a swimsuit you can log every workout and compare it to others with similiar goals. Potentially in the future I'd like to make a forum section where members can discuss various training plans, motivating stories or whatever their heart desires.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
If we won the money, We would start by advertising and refining the website with the intention of joining forces with a charity and having an annual event such as a 5k race or a weekend softball tournament to raise money for that charity. Right now the charity would probably be Cure JM Foundation (Juvenile Myositis) which is an autoimmune disease that your own body's immune system attacks its own cells and tissues. For many children with this disease, it's a challenge to simply stand up or sit down. My own brother has it but has since run 8 marathons which was the original inspiration to create this website.
Vote for it now.
I love the idea and would be interested in connecting to others with similar goals as motivation. Having the online training log is a huge plus. I would think about featuring your brother on the site and maybe allow people to post pictures of themselves meeting their goals (finish line shots, etc.). Why not even try to link up with race organizers to cross market. They might also be a source of revenue down the line. Good luck.
