Application Review and Team Selection

APPLICATION REVIEW

Please do not expect a status update on your application until mid-April. All applicants will be notified of their status via email.
We may contact you during the application review period if we need more information or clarification about your application answers.
We know that waiting is hard, but please do not contact us asking for an update! We are a small staff and we will be working through many applications. We promise that we will let you know once we have made our decisions.
We have a very limited number of race entries. They will be assigned based on responses to questions on the application. Each application is personally reviewed by staff and considered individually. Key elements in the application include reason(s) for wanting to join Team Still I Run, your personal fundraising commitment, your fundraising plans, and your overall application.
Team Still I Run alumni are evaluated on past fundraising results and demonstrated success, as well as adherence to the fundraising deadline during each season of participation.
We will also select a wait list. If an accepted team member withdraws from the team by the cancellation deadline (July 1, 2024), a wait-listed runner will be invited to join the team. If you are waitlisted we encourage you to start training in June to stay on pace with the training schedule so you are ready to join the team.
BYOB applicants with their own official marathon entry will be accepted onto Team Still I Run upon confirmation of race entry. The minimum fundraising commitment for BYOB runners will be $1,500.
Accepted athletes agree to raise a minimum of $4,500 ($1,500 for those with their own entry) by the fundraising deadline of October 20, 2024.

TEAM REQUIREMENTS

Each charity bib runner will attend two required fundraising meetings with the Team Still I Run Manager: one each in June and October.
Accepted runners must set up their personal fundraising webpage on our official Team Fundraising Page within two weeks of signing their Runner's Contract to complete their acceptance to the team, or their charity bib will be awarded to the waitlist.
The final fundraising deadline for all team members is October 20, 2024. Any balance due to meet the required fundraising minimum for charity bib runners will be charged to their credit card on file on October 21, 2024. Fundraising tracking/billing is based on the amount posted to each participant’s fundraising webpage on October 20, 2024. Reversal of balance due will not be made for contributions posted or received to a runner’s personal webpage after the billing date.
If selected to the team, all runners will be required to pay a $315 (non-NYRR members) / $255 (NYRR members) registration fee to the NYRR by their set deadline. This payment is separate from your fundraising and does not count towards the fundraising commitment, nor is it tax-deductible. Still I Run does not cover this fee.

CANCELLATION POLICY FOR ACCEPTED APPLICANTS

You must notify Sasha Wolff, Founder of Still I Run, in writing at sasha@stillirun.org on or before July 1, 2024, if you cannot fulfill your commitment to train for and/or run the 2024 New York City Marathon. After July 1, 2024, each participant allotted one of Still I Run’s charity bib entries is held responsible for the required fundraising minimum of $4,500, even if the participant is no longer able to train for and/or run the 2024 New York City Marathon. All donations received by Still I Run are non-refundable.
