Story
I’m thrilled to be training for NYC Marathon as part of Team HSS!
This will be my second marathon. My first was NYC in 2018 – other than a broken toe, calf strain, and bad cold the week of the race, it was an incredible experience! I’m hoping training goes better this time around.
This fundraiser is particularly relevant as a focus of my clinical practice and research is running injuries. As you may know, I commit two days each week to research -- leading HSS Primary Sports Medicine Service's research efforts, collaborating with other physicians and researchers, and mentoring residents and fellows with their research. It is fitting that I will be running a marathon to support running medicine research at HSS. While I’m doing my best to not get injured, having dealt with my own running injuries certainly helps me empathize with my patients (and inspire a few research projects).
Knowing that my patients are invested in this work with me is incredibly motivating. Please consider donating!
Sincerely,
Brett
