Team NYUL 2025 TCS New York City Marathon

#TEAMGREEN IS RUNNING THE NYC MARATHON THIS NOVEMBER!

This year is all about milestones for our family. My husband, Dwight, just celebrated his 50th birthday, and I'm nearing two years postpartum with our incredible son, DJ. To mark these big moments, we're taking on a challenge that's personal to us: running the 2025 TCS New York City Marathon.

New York is the city where our story began, and it holds a special place in our hearts. We want to give back to the city that brought us together. That’s why we’re running with Team NYUL to support the New York Urban League.

NYUL is a vital organization dedicated to empowering Black communities and other underserved groups throughout the five boroughs. They focus on initiatives that create real opportunities, from helping people find jobs and start businesses to offering educational programs for our youth. They’re working to build a more equitable and inclusive New York—the kind of city we want our son, DJ, to grow to love as well..

Your support would mean the world to us as we run these 26.2 miles. Please consider donating to our page and helping us reach our goal. Every dollar makes a difference in creating a stronger, more vibrant community for all New Yorkers.
