Natives Run Boston Marathon Information Session

The Ohketeau Cultural Center and the Boston Athletic Association (BAA) have partnered to bring an exclusive opportunity to the Tribal Citizens of New England.  
This is a Cultural Wealth and Health initiative to bring fitness, tradition and the historic legacy of Native American athletes to the platform it deserves. 

We will be hosting a social gathering for all interested Tribal Citizens of New England. 
Join us to hear about how to get a Bib, which is a registered number to compete in the Boston Marathon. We will also cover the training process and additional opportunities for Tribal Citizens to get involved in fitness training and wellness programs sponsored by the BAA. 

Please Note:  We understand that running in a Marathon takes significant training. We understand four months is not an ideal amount of time to train; unless you are already an athlete in training.  This gathering will allow Tribal Citizens to explore their interests and perhaps decide to prepare for the 2026 Marathon Run. 

Event Date: January 19th, 2024 Time: 1pm-4pm
Location: Hopkinton Center for the Arts                
98 Hayden Rowe St, Hopkinton, MA 01748 

Refreshments will be served. We would be happy to answer any question you may have via email or phone call.  Please RSVP to this email or to info@ohketeau.org by Monday January 13th, 2025. Please include in your RSVP the number of Tribal Citizens attending.
