A MESSAGE FROM Run 4 Sydney- Matt and Corrine Folmer
Sydney was 9 years old when she was diagnosed with narcolepsy. While having narcolepsy has changed her life in more ways than we imagined, she has embraced it as part of who she is and does not let it stop her from living life. She has become her own best advocate. In an effort to support her advocacy, we are proud to raise funds and run in the marathon on behalf of Narcolepsy Network, who works bring an awareness to others around the impact of narcolepsy. We know that a marathon will be a challenge and exhausting, it is simply a small obstacle in comparison to the fatigue Sydney experiences on a daily basis. She is such an inspiration for us! This is for you Syd.
Narcolepsy Network is thrilled to be running the TCS New York City Marathon as an official charity partner. The marathon provides a unique platform for #TeamNarcolepsy runners to pursue their goals, while raising awareness for a cause close to their hearts—narcolepsy. We are proud to support them on their journey to the iconic finish line, as they raise important funds to benefit programs that support the narcolepsy community.
