I'm proud to be running the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon as a member of Team Make-A-Wish Metro New York.

As the parent of a young son, I know how much childhood is built on imagination, anticipation, and the belief that something wonderful is possible. That's why the mission of Make-A-Wish resonates so deeply with me.

For children facing critical illnesses, a wish is so much more than a single unforgettable experience. It restores hope, creates joy, strengthens families, and gives children something extraordinary to look forward to during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. It gives them a chance to simply be kids again.

Running 26.2 miles through New York City will be one of the greatest physical challenges I've ever taken on, but every mile will have a purpose. Every training run, every early morning, and every finish line is dedicated to helping grant life-changing wishes for children and families in our community.

This marathon is part of a larger journey I've begun through Ethan Runs For Good—using running to support organizations that make a meaningful difference in people's lives. I'm honored that Make-A-Wish Metro New York is one of those organizations.

I've set an ambitious fundraising goal, and I would be incredibly grateful for your support. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings a child one step closer to experiencing the hope, strength, and joy of a wish come true.

Thank you for supporting Team Make-A-Wish, for supporting me, and—most importantly—for helping make the impossible possible for children who need it most.
