I’m going to be running the 116th Boston Marathon and I’ve set out to raise $5,000 for the Boys & Girls Club!

I would never commit to the amount of time and energy it takes to train to run 26.2 miles or ask anyone to donate to this cause if it weren't extremely important to me. I can’t think of a more worthy charity than the Boys & Girls Club. As a former Club member, I know firsthand that every day Clubs allow kids to think bigger, grow stronger and become the people they dream of.

Please make a gift to the Club that will provide quality educational programs and athletic activities to kids so that they are equipped with the crucial skills needed to become healthy, fit and successful adults.

A donation, of any amount, will help!

Thanks for visiting and thank you VERY much for your gift to the Boys & Girls Club!

John Ryan

    Jump in a cab around mile 8 and drive around the city for a while, then hop out at mile 24 and sprint so it looks like you're spent at the end. Just kidding, good luck man.

    Anything over 3.5 hours will be considered a failure (by me of course, probably not anyone else). Good luck, John!
