2024 Runners

Runners are the key members of the Credit Unions (CU) Kids at Heart Team. With the generous help of the Boston Athletic Association (BAA) and Boston Children's Hospital (BCH), the CU Kids at Heart Team obtains “bibs,” limited entries awarded for charitable fundraising purposes, for the Boston Marathon. The CU Kids at Heart Runners train with and run, as part of the BCH Miles for Miracles Team, but the money they raise is restricted to the CU Kids at Heart Team's research initiatives at BCH. Our Runners are paired with Patient Partners who have received care at BCH, and many form a life-long bond.
