Blood Clot Busters – Become a NATThlete  

Mobilize for Fun and Funds

Double the value of any marathon, mini-marathon, iron man, swim meet, cycling race, golf tournament, or sports activity in which you participate.

When you exercise, you minimize your risk of venous blood clots, and you can maximize any sports event by raising money to help us fight this silent killer.  Commit to help NBCA spread the word about the danger of blood clots in veins.  Mobilize family, friends, and your circle of sports enthusiasts or couch potatoes to become a local Stop The Clot® Team for NBCA.

NBCA will use donated money to alert people to the risk of blood clots and clotting disorders.  Approximately 350,000-600,000 people have blood clots in the leg (DVT or deep vein thrombosis) or lung (PE or pulmonary embolism) that result in about 100,000 deaths each year in the US.  This means that 1 out of 3 people with venous blood clots die.

You can make a difference!

Here is what you do:

  1. Register for a marathon or other event and encourage others to join you as a NATThlete

  3.  Create a personal online fundraising page for donations and e-mail everyone you know!
  4.  Train for your event
  5.  Let us know how you did so we can acknowledge your efforts

Here is what NBCA will do:

  2.  Provide you with a race-day singlet
  3.  Assist you with your online fundraising page
