Marathon Strides Against MS 2014

BAA Boston Marathon Official Charity logoThe National Multiple Sclerosis Society and its Marathon Strides Against MS® (MSAMS) team will once again field a team for the Boston Marathon on . (See current fundraising totals.) As a charity partner of the Boston Athletic Association, we are grateful for the continued support from the BAA and the Boston Marathon community.

The 2017 MSAMS team raised more than $300,000. These necessary funds support MS research and programs and services for those living with MS. As a member of the MSAMS, your fundraising efforts make a huge difference to the individuals and families living with MS in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

All Marathon Strides Against MS team members enjoy the following benefits:

  • - Training plans and weekly Saturday run support from our team coach, multi-time triathlon champion and USA Triathlon Hall of Fame inductee, Karen Smyers
  • - MSAMS running singlet and running jacket
  • - Team social gatherings, pre-marathon pasta dinner and post-marathon reception
  • - Fundraising support and online tools

You can apply to join our team by using the "Apply" button above. Applicants will be notified by email and telephone if accepted onto the MSAMS team. For 2018, we have fewer bibs available than in previous years and submitting an application does not ensure that you will be accepted onto the team.  There is a non-refundable $25 application fee; should you be accepted onto the team, this amount will be applied toward your $100 registration fee. For 2018, the Boston Athletic Association has set the minimum fundraising required at $5,000.

  • - Applications must be returned no later than 9/29/17.
  • - All Runners will be notified by 10/20/17 whether they have made the team or not.
  • - Runners who make the team will have until November 1st to confirm commitment agreement and will be officially registered. If you make the team and we don’t hear from you by November 1st, we will move forward onto the waiting list.
  • - Kickoff Party will be in November.
