This year I’m running the Cambridge Half Marathon in November and the San Francisco Full Marathon next July, with a goal of raising $5,000 for Run Your City, the nonprofit my daughter Mary founded to make sports more accessible for kids who need it most.
Run Your City creates free, inclusive running programs for kids who often face barriers to joining sports — whether due to income, ability, or access. College student-athletes lead the way, coaching and mentoring kids through joyful six-week seasons of running, games, and personal growth. No fees. No equipment needed. Just the space to run, grow, and jump in on the fun of sports — an introduction that’s shaped so many of us.
All donations go straight to programming (shoes, food, insurance, transportation) the basics that make the movement happen. The organization is 100% volunteer.
I will match all donations.
