About
It’s more than a race, it’s moments that will challenge, inspire and change you! From the moment you become part of our team to the moment you cross the finish line, the Liver Life Challenge provides an unforgettable experience. You’ll achieve your own fitness goals, while fundraising to create a better future for the estimated 100 million Americans affected by liver disease.
The American Liver Foundation is an Official Charity Partner with the United Airlines New York City Half Marathon and has a limited number of guaranteed entries available for the 2023 race. Top consideration will be given to applicants who are highly motivated to raise important funds to support the ALF mission with a minimum commitment of $1,500. This minimum is a requirement that every runner is personally responsible for without exception.
