MARATHON MISSION
Running the NYC Marathon to Support Indigenous Wellness Leaders
Join the Mission
This year I’m running the TCS New York City Marathon in support of Native Strength Revolution — an Indigenous-led nonprofit restoring wellness and leadership in Native communities across the United States and Canada.
SUPPORTWhy This Matters
Across North America, Indigenous communities are reclaiming wellness through movement, cultural leadership, and community-led healing.
Native Strength Revolution trains Indigenous wellness leaders who bring yoga, movement, and culturally grounded healing practices back into their communities.
These leaders are creating powerful change from within — strengthening physical, mental, and spiritual well-being across tribal nations.
Their work is not just about health.
It’s about sovereignty, resilience, and healing across generations.

My Marathon Mission
Doubling Down on Purpose
This November I will run the TCS New York City Marathon for the 3rd time, days before my 60th birthday with an expanded goal:
To raise funds for two charities while running the marathon, because the world needs us most right now.
The first half — miles 1 to 13 — supports Indigenous wellness leaders through Native Strength Revolution.
The second half — miles 14 to 26 — is dedicated to the work of The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp.
And the last 0.2 miles are ALL ME!! 😉
This structure makes every mile symbolic: half for healing communities, half for bringing joy to children facing serious illness.
Each step of the marathon becomes a symbol of strength, resilience, healing and making a difference, together.
The 13 Miles of Indigenous Strength
The first half of the marathon honors Indigenous leadership.
