Past Experiences:

We’ve been honored to to be an official charity partner of the TCS NYC Marathon since 2019. Our team members have collectively raising more than $150,000 for rare cancer research. Read some Team BLG experiences below:

On Sunday, I carried Gabe with me in my heart for 26.2 miles from Staten Island to Central Park. I was given the incredible opportunity to use something I am passionate about for the greater good, and for that, I am beyond thankful. The energy on the streets of New York City was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced and is something I will never forget. Even when my legs felt like they were going to give out during the last few miles, I couldn’t stop smiling.
I still can’t quite put into words how special this day was. It truly was one of the best days of my life.
Thank you, THANK YOU for this opportunity. I was so grateful to run with BLG, and I feel so lucky to be part of this community.
Being part of this team made me run with a real purpose and felt I was part of something bigger than me!
