Team End ALZ is the official athletics program of the Alzheimer’s Association Massachusetts/New Hampshire Chapter. The program was created for athletes of all abilities to help them successfully achieve their goal of completing an endurance event while raising funds for Alzheimer’s disease.
Our inaugural event was in April 2001 when 10 participants ran the Boston Marathon®. Collectively they raised $28,000. In 2006, the Alzheimer’s Association was selected as an official charity of the Boston Marathon. Team End ALZ is also an official charity partner for the Asics Falmouth Road Race and Baystate Marathon and Half Marathon. Additionally, we offer support to individuals who wish to run any event of their choice and fundraise for the Alzheimer’s Association through our "Run Your Own Race" option.
Since the program began, over 8 million dollars has been raised by athletes towards the Alzheimer’s Association mission. We invite individuals of all ages and abilities to join Team End ALZ as a participant or volunteer, or by making a donation to our program. Our athletes join together to meet the same goal: to #endALZ.
