NYRR Run for the Future is a free six-week program that introduces young women in 11th and 12th grade to the sport of running and provides lessons in self-care and wellness. After the program finishes, participants are eligible to join our alumnae program, which offers great opportunities for camaraderie and networking. This month, our alumnae did some amazing things! On October 3, they attended the annual Run for the Future Financial Workshop at the J.P. Morgan offices, where they learned about financial wellness and women in the banking industry. On October 5, alumnae went to a NJ/NY Gotham FC soccer match and watched the home team win 5–1! Alumna Faizina even got to participate in the torch lighting ceremony that takes place every game.

In just three days, 13,000 runners will toe the line for the NYRR #StatenIslandHalf. This much-loved race features a fun and challenging course that offers runners spectacular views of New York Harbor and the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. The NYRR Staten Island Half comes just three weeks before 50,000 runners will gather in Staten Island for the start of the #TCSNYCMarathon. Staten Island has been the site of the start since 1976, when the race became a five-borough event. But our impact on Staten Island extends well beyond these two amazing races. More than 800 NYRR members live in Staten Island, and in 2023, 955 runners from the borough took part in NYRR races. In addition, more than 4,200 youth in Staten Island participated in free Rising NYRR programs during the 2023–2024 school year. Learn more about NYRR’s impact on Staten Island: https://bit.ly/4hc7RXc
