November 7th


Our Team Life Without Lupus proudly represented the lupus community in New York City, across the United States, and around the world—and ours is the only lupus organization ever to host a team in the world’s most famous marathon!

What a Run It Was!

The 38 runners of Team Life Without Lupus braved the brisk winds of New York City in Sunday’s ING NYC Marathon.

Some of our runners were featured in the press:

Sean Gates

The New York Daily News wrote a moving story about a Team Life Without Lupus runner: “Shawn Gates won't let lupus catch up with her; she plans to use Marathon as fund-raiser to find cure”

And we cheered them all on—in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and other points along the 26.2 mile route!

Fans cheer for Marathon runners

Altogether they’ve raised an incredible $130,000 in support of patient services and research to find a cure!

And you can still help them climb that final hill—let’s push past $150,000!
