GIVING MEANING TO 42KM

I’m taking on the 2024 TCS New York City Marathon with Fred’s Team, the official running program of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). My goal is to raise as much as I can to support groundbreaking cancer research at MSK, and your donation will give me a boost as I train for my race.

Last year I took on the challenge to train for a Half Marathon and I can now proudly say that I completed the London Landmarks Half Marathon on 7th April 2024 in 01:57:28 raising £1,341 for Blood Cancer UK (which Bloomberg, my employer, matched 100%, doubling the total amount raised). I would like to think that one day, each one of us will have helped make the difference and live in a world free of cancer and all diseases.

I will be taking my next challenge to the next level, running the TCS NYC Marathon with Fred's Team joining my colleagues from all over the world as part of the "Bloomberg 1000" team. Knowing that I will be training and running it in support of a great charitable organisation, and helping fund research for different types of cancer, will help me focus and get it done.

I am doing this for all the dear people we lost to cancer - I wish we had a cure and they didn't have to go through the pain they went through. You won't be forgotten. We miss you, always and forever.

I am doing this for all the dear people who are currently fighting a form of cancer in hope that we will find a cure in your lifetime!

100% OF YOUR DONATION SUPPORTS RESEARCH
Named in honor of New York City Marathon co-founder and MSK patient Fred Lebow, Fred’s Team brings together passionate runners and supporters to make progress against cancer. Since 1995, Fred’s Team participants have raised over $110 million. 100% of funds raised go directly into MSK labs, where doctors and scientists have expertise in more than 400 types of cancer and work every day to find new cures.

Last year, the "Bloomberg 1000" team, formed of 35 colleagues, raised over $500,000 for cancer research. I am excited to be part of the team and, you know me, what is a goal made for if not to be exceeded?

DONATE TODAY!
When you make a gift to Fred’s Team, you help MSK researchers develop new treatment options for the people who need them most. Together, we can make a big difference.

Thank you!
