CELEBRATE THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE TCS NEW YORK CITY MARATHON BY RUNNING FOR FREE TO RUN IN 2020
For many runners, the New York City Marathon is at the top of the bucket list. This year, it is going to be an extra special affair — 2020 marks the 50th anniversary of the New York City Marathon, the largest marathon in the world. Free to Run is proud to be an official charity partner for the 2020 TCS New York City Marathon and we’re putting forward our biggest team yet! Through our partnership, we have guaranteed paid entries for a team of runners who are willing to run the marathon and fundraise for Free to Run.
Why should you run with our team?
As a Free to Run Marathon Runner, you will receive a number of benefits including:
A paid entry fee and guaranteed number for the 2020 TCS New York City Marathon, valued at $295-358
Fundraising support to help you surpass your goal, including help setting up your online fundraising page
An invitation to a dedicated Strava group with the Free to Run NYC Marathon team (this group will be available for questions, training tips, fundraising support, and event logistics)
