Completed Events
TCS New York City Marathon
In November of 2022, a team of eight runners took to the streets of New York City to experience what is known as the ‘world’s best marathon’. Working their way through all five boroughs of this iconic city, the team crossed the finish line in Central Park, proud of their accomplishment of getting to the finish line and for the tens of thousands of dollars raised along the way.
Endure For a Cure
Endure for a Cure is a cycling ride organized by the Children's Cancer Institute that raises vital funds for childhood cancer research every year. The event is an endurance challenge, as riders can join in teams or as individuals to complete as many laps as possible in 12 hours while fundraising to help find a cure. Since 2014, the event has already raised over $2,000,000 for research and programs which has made an extraordinary impact in getting the CCI closer to one day curing all kids of cancer.
The 2020 edition of the ride took place on October 16th at the iconic Sydney Motorsport Park, a 4km traffic-free circuit track that is safe for all levels. As part of our partnership with the Children's Cancer Institute, we participated with a team of former athletes riding together to help raise funds for this cause. Together, we raised over AU$ 18,000 by the day of the event.
