2025 TCS New York City Marathon
We are delighted we have been allocated 15 BIBs for this year’s 2025 TCS New York City Marathon on Sunday, November 2nd. This will be our eighth year as a Charity Partner. We have a team fund-raising goal of $100,000 and are confident we will reach our goal. Each runner commits to raising at least $5,000. All funds raised will be used to support our programs for teens with physical disabilities in Grand Cayman (Cayman Islands) in 2026.
Highlighted below are the members of Team Stay-Focused 2025. The TCS New York City Marathon has become our most effective and successful annual fundraiser. We hope you will donate to our team, as our runners will have trained hard to reach their personal goals and support Stay-Focused.
Our Runners

Nolan CrawfordHometown: New York City, New York Reason for Running: “I’ve always loved a challenge. Whether it’s academics, career, or pushing myself outside my comfort zone, I like taking on things that push me in new ways. Training for the NYC Marathon is no different, and I’m excited to take it on with Stay-Focused. I first learned to dive in Grand Cayman, so I know how powerful that experience can be. Running 26.2 miles through my hometown in support of a cause that helps young people with disabilities discover their own potential through diving makes this challenge even more meaningful.” |

Corey BraithwaiteHometown: Miami, FL Reason for Running: “As an avid runner for many years, I began running long distance eight years ago, as a result of developing wellness plans for my work colleagues. The wellness development has expanded to me coaching two running groups in Miami and then joining another elite running group. In recent years, I have been challenging myself to run one of the elite marathons and I am excited about the opportunity to run New York City Marathon and raise funds for Stay-Focused.” |

Abby ClearyHometown: Boise, ID Reason for Running: “I’m running the NYC 2025 Marathon, following in the footsteps of my dad, who first ran this race over 40 years ago and is still going strong. He’s always inspired me with his love for running, and this year, I’m finally joining him on the course. I’m excited to challenge myself, take in the energy of the city, and support an incredible cause like Stay-Focused. To stay motivated while running, I plan to pretend I’m an outlaw running in a 26.2-mile high-speed chase!” |
