Organiser's description
JOIN US FOR A 2 MILE RUN/WALK IN HONOR OF MATT GRIFFIN!
If you know Matt, you know that running is a passion of his. In high school, he played soccer and specialized in running the 2-mile event in track (of course, he chose one of the hardest events!) He carried this love of running throughout his entire life. Even running a half marathon with his sister, Ashley, in 2019! The discipline, determination, and competitiveness it takes to be a life-long runner are hallmarks of Matt's character.
What Matt loves more than running is being with his friends and family -- and maybe having a cold beer or two or three! So whether you channel Matt's intensity and push yourself to run your fastest 2 miles, or enjoy a 2-mile stroll through Matt's Seaport/Southie neighborhoods; we hope you join us and stay for a celebration at Lord Hobo Brewery Seaport! We'd love to celebrate his birthday and cherish his memory with you!
All proceeds from this event will go to benefit the Neuroendocrine Tumor Research Foundation https://netrf.org/breakthroughs (NETRF), an organization that is close to our hearts and whose mission is to fund research to discover a cure for neuroendocrine cancer. We are joining the Breakthroughs Today, Cures Tomorrow http://netrf.org/breakthroughscampaign! NETRF is committed to fund $25 million in leading-edge research by 2030 to transform diagnosis, new treatments, and lives.
