Answer:

A, Join in the Fun Run to help a good cause, make friends, and get healthy.

Step-by-step explanation:

B causes people to have the "if only 75% need to join, why does that mean me?" mindset.

C causes people to have the "why does that matter it's not me?" mindset.

D is not a compelling argument to make to a student.
