✨ Final stop: Boston Marathon

My Sixth Star,
Running for More Tomorrows

Hi, I’m Danielle. I’ve chased finish lines in New York, Berlin, Chicago, London, and Tokyo — and now I’m heading to Boston to earn my Abbott World Marathon Majors Six Star medal while raising funds for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

This isn’t a polished brand campaign. It’s real miles, salty hair, small community run clubs, and a big belief that movement should feel welcoming, not intimidating.

The Six Star Adventure

Somewhere between my first New York City finish line and a dream shaped in Berlin, Chicago, London, and Tokyo, the Six Star medal went from “someday” to “I’m doing this.” Each race has carried new people, new views, and new reasons to keep moving forward.

Boston is the final piece — but this one is different. I’m running it with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, because cancer has brushed too close to too many of us. Cancer touches every family. It’s not if, it’s when. Funding research buys us the most precious thing of all: more time together. Your donation fuels breakthrough science and patient care at Dana‑Farber. Every mile I run — and every dollar you give — is part of that fight.

Woodcliff Park/Walk Run Club

Movement for everybody, not just “runners.”

I created the Woodcliff Park Walk/Run Club as a fundraiser, but also as a safe, no-pressure space for people to move their bodies, meet their neighbors, and feel good showing up exactly as they are. Little did I know, this crew would turn into my loudest cheerleaders — and even better, an incredible support system for one another.

Together we've crushed the Woodcliff hills, beach walks, walk/run intervals out on the road, DIY 5Ks, consistency challenges — all with one rule: if you’re moving, you belong here.

Making health feel accessible and fun matters to me. You don’t need fancy gear or a Boston bib to be part of this story — every lap, like every dollar, adds up.

How the club fuels the fundraiser

Donation-based club runs & walks.
Month-long consistency challenges (move a little, give a little).
Community 5Ks with fun swag instead of stiff race vibes.
Creative merch (hats, patches, magnets) that support Dana-Farber.

Join in virtually by moving where you are, tagging @danixnyc or @wcparkwalkrunclub, and sharing the fundraiser link. 💛
