MANHATTAN, New York — The TCS New York City Marathon kicked off Sunday morning, with more than 50,000 runners taking part in the historic race, including Newswatch 16's Chelsea Strub and Team Allied Services and You.
The team's goal is to raise funds for patients and residents at Allied Services. Donations will benefit children and adults with disabilities.
The race takes runners from Staten Island through each of the 5 New York City Boroughs and ends in Central Park.
Every year, runners volunteer to independently train and raise funds as they pledge to complete the TCS New York City Marathon—one of the largest charity efforts in the country, where thousands come together to support the causes nearest to their hearts.
With the support of WNEP, major sponsors, volunteer runners, and you, Team Allied Services will continue to raise funds and awareness for patients at Allied Services.
You're invited to join us in supporting more milestones in rehab for stroke survivors, more firsts for children with developmental disabilities, more precious memories for hospice patients, and more lives restored for mental health sufferers.
