A MESSAGE FROM Shelby Suther
The opportunity to run the NYC Marathon is a dream come true and I am so excited to be partnered with Marathon Kids to do it! After sharing my passion for Physical Education, desire for students to lead healthy lives and build self confidence, and the role that running has played in my life, I was selected out of 60+ applicants to be on the Marathon Kids team of 10 runners at the world's largest marathon!
Marathon Kids is a program that can be implemented in PE or as an after school program. Their mission is to empower students to achieve goals, build confidence, and create lifelong healthy habits that ignite a passion in them to be more physically active.
As a physical education teacher and lover of fitness, their mission to provide children of all abilities the opportunity to improve their physical health and confidence hits home! I am so excited to be partnered with Marathon Kids for the 2025 TCS New York City Marathon.
Please join me in supporting Marathon Kids by clicking the donate button. Your love and support would mean the world to me as I tackle this challenge and create more opportunities for children to foster a love of physical activity!
