Team Labrecque – ING NYC Marathon 2008

Running as one to make a difference and help find a cure!

Every year, the New York Road Runners has a limited number of entries (selected through a lottery drawing) for the ING New York City Marathon. In 2006 the NYRR began a program to give runners not accepted through the lottery a second chance and a guaranteed spot through the Special Charity Initiative! The Charity Initiative allows the first 525 people who apply and pledge to raise at least $2,500 for one of the chosen foundations guaranteed entry into the 2008 NYC Marathon!

The Thomas G. Labrecque Foundation is proud to be chosen as one of the charities in the program for the third year in a row! The TGL Foundation is committed to preventing lung cancer through education and research, in order to break the stigmas associated with the disease. With greater understanding will come increased funding. Medical research has enabled women to survive breast cancer and men to survive prostate cancer. The same can be done for lung cancer patients, but only with increased funding for research. Funds raised by the TGL Foundation will be distributed to the nation’s top cancer research centers through the input of a medical advisory board that includes clinicians from the Country’s leading thoracic oncology institutions.

Chris Bellamy	$40.00	"Frank! I was going to run myself, but then I remembered I had some sock drawer rearranging to take care of. Besides, if I ran, it wouldn't have been for anything. I figure if someone I know runs in the marathon it's basically like doing it myself, which I think is a major accomplishment. My girlfriend's mom and 2 aunts are all cancer survivors because of the advances in cancer research, and a big part of that is due to the dedication of people like you. I cried when I heard about your mom, who I loved like crazy. All the time I spent at your place, breaking stuff in the basement, and she never got mad at me! I wish you luck, and I hope I get to catch up with you sometime soon. And remember to replace your electrolytes."
