The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation is proud to partner with the World Marathon Majors on three
of the world’s elite races: Boston, The LaSalle Bank Chicago and ING New York City marathons.

A limited number of guaranteed entries are available. MMRF athletes who pledge to raise funds and awareness for myeloma research will qualify for a guaranteed marathon entry, race gear, and runner goody bag. In order to ensure that as much of your donation as possible goes back to fund direct myeloma research, the athlete will be responsible for additional costs such as transportation and hotel accommodations.

To qualify for the MMRF Marathon team and participate in one of the following marathons, click on the EMAIL YOUR CHARITY button at the bottom of the page. Then, fill out the brief questionnaire, an MMRF representative will get back to shortly.

The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) was founded in 1998 by identical twin sisters Kathy Giusti and Karen Andrews shortly following Kathy's diagnosis with multiple myeloma, an incurable blood cancer. MMRF’s mission is to urgently and aggressively fund research that will lead to the development of new treatments for multiple myeloma. For more information, visit www.multiplemyeloma.org
