Hear From Our Athletes
I just wanted to say thank you to you and the BEF team for coordinating such an incredible experience on Sunday. Even with the chaos of the big race, everything went so smoothly because of all of your hard work. I truly loved running for BEF, and I was so inspired by all of my fellow runners. Thank you for letting me be a part of it.
Mimi Burns
Thank you for making my experience at the NYC Marathon better than I could have imagined! It was an honor running with the team… Hard to express how much I enjoyed the experience, but a picture is worth a thousand words. Hope to run with you guys again!
Hannah Camic
I feel so honored and proud to have the opportunity and ability to run with my husband and family. Our achievements today would not have been possible without the support of our family, friends, Team Boomer (their awesome people and coach), and the amazing NYC community.
Sabrina Walker
What an experience! I couldn’t be happier to have run the NYC Marathon with Team Boomer across my chest. So happy this disease is getting the exposure it needs, and Team Boomer is a big reason why!
Alex Kenny
An absolute honour to represent Team Boomer as their Athlete of the Month. Let’s go get it!
Josh Llewellyn-Jones
In my first ever half marathon, I was proud to be racing in a Team Boomer shirt. I believe one of the best ways to spread awareness is by CFers completing goals that seem impossible.

Thank you so much to you for a wonderful weekend! Thanks for arranging the dinner and the team bus and for cheering along Mile 18! I loved the entire Team Boomer and race experience!
