Team CSC United: Running for Hope and Support in the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon
The Cancer Support Community (CSC) is set to participate in the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon with Team CSC United, a group of runners from across the nation coming together for a meaningful cause. Team CSC United aims to raise awareness of CSC's free resources and programs for those affected by cancer by running 26.2 miles through New York City. The team has a fundraising goal of $50,000, with each participant committing to raising at least $5,000 to support cancer support services.
Actor and three-time cancer survivor Colin Egglesfield will be among the participants running with Team CSC United. Egglesfield, who has battled testicular and prostate cancer, is running to show his gratitude for the support he received during his cancer journey and to ensure that others know they are not alone in their battles. He believes in the hope and possibilities that CSC's work offers to those impacted by cancer.
Team CSC United comprises individuals with personal connections to cancer, including survivors, caregivers, advocates, healthcare professionals, and industry partners. They are running to support those affected by cancer and to raise funds to help CSC continue providing essential services and resources to the community. Each mile of the marathon symbolizes resilience, hope, and the unity of a community working together for a common cause.
