Below are the incredible members of Team NYMRC 2024! Scroll to hear why they chose the New York Marine Rescue Center and donate to their individual pages to help them reach their goal!
Sydney Dutton
My name is Sydney Dutton, and I am so excited to be running my first NYC marathon for the NYMRC! I just graduated from Penn State with a degree in Biology and minors in Marine Science and Earth and Sustainability. I chose the NYMRC because I want to be a marine biologist, specifically focusing on coral restoration, and what better charity to run for as an aspiring marine biologist than the NYMRC. I was so excited when I saw them as a charity option, I knew I had to do it.
Katie Oberg
Katie lives in a Minneapolis suburb with her daughter, husband and two dogs. The only thing she loves as much as running are animals, which is why she chose to run on behalf of NYMRC. Katie has dreamt of running the NYC Marathon since 2007, and she is more than ready to check off this bucket list race. This will be her 17th marathon! Katie was really inspired by the NYMRC mission to not only save and rehabilitate our marine mammal and sea turtle friends, but also educate and improve the marine environment for future generations. She can’t wait to raise money to support the NYMRC and toe the line at the life-changing NYC Marathon in November!
