Running For
REACH

Runner applications will open beginning in spring of 2025.  If you are a PGA of America Member interested in Running for REACH, please connect with our team by emailing ablundell@pgahq.com so we can give more details.

For more than fifty years, the TCS New York City Marathon has been one of the most iconic and largest marathons on the planet – boasting over 50,000 finishers annually. Since 2017, the PGA of America REACH Foundation has teamed up with the New York Road Runners to welcome a group of dedicated PGA of America Golf Professionals to raise support and awareness for the Foundation's mission by running the race of a lifetime.


"There were many 'why's' behind choosing to Run For REACH. I want to be remembered as a PGA of America Member who was always available when called upon. I want to know without a doubt that I have given everything my heart and body have to give and that I left nothing in the tank. I wanted to be an example for those who want or need to make a hard life choice and don’t know that they can be successful. My hope is that by finishing this race and standing with my shoulders back and a smile on my face 26.2 miles later, that at least one person will reframe the question in their mind and ask – 'Why not?'"
