Dear Family and Friends,

Let us start by saying the last 2 years have been some of the worst of our lives, but we are still inspired. The pandemic affected us but also our family and friends. We lost family members, friends and coworkers, but we stay hopeful. We stayed at home with our boys and played many roles we never thought we would have to, but we survived. We now more than ever value that time at home with them, and family always comes first.  We consider ourselves lucky that we live in an area where our boys have access to team and individual sports, uniforms, equipment and coaching. Unfortunately as many of you know this isn't the case in most of the country. We believe that kids need to get exercise to be successful in the classroom, and have access to the proper equipment, nutrition and coaching to be successful on the field or track. So, with the support of family and friends Anna and I have decided to create Team Wicked Strong and run the 2022 TCS New York City Marathon in November in support of Team for Kids.  Team for Kids is a team of adult runners who raise funds for critical services provided by New York Road Runners youth programs. These programs empower youth development and encourage healthy habits via running and character-building programs in low-income schools and community centers in New York City and across the country. This is why we chose Team for Kids, and their mission, to represent as charity runners for the 2022 TCS NYC marathon. We have both been running for several years and no better way to celebrate family by running a marathon together and supporting an amazing organization, Team for Kids. We know the road ahead will be a difficult one but we are both ready to put in the work to make it to the starting line and cross the finish line this November. We are asking for your support of their inspiring mission and ours. Please help us and Team for Kids both get there.

Your giving helps New York Road Runners youth programs to:

  • Serve 250,000 students nationwide - including 125,000 in New York City's five boroughs - through free NYRR youth running programs, events, and resources.
  • Engage students in long-term athlete development (LTAD), a lifelong journey that guides an individual's experience in sports and physical activity to develop healthy minds and bodies for life.
  • Help build the next generation of athletes by supporting coaches, educators, and fitness leaders with the tools they need to make a difference.

 

This is not an easy task, but we know we will be able to reach our goals. Thank you in advance for your support for Team for Kids and Anna and Myself. 


See you at the finish line!


Peace and Love,


Anna and Bill Berman
