Team M.A.D. was formed by an ad hoc group of dedicated people in 2006 and is a 501(c)(3)! For the past decade, we trained runners and non-runners to be able to complete a half marathon (13.1 miles) or a full marathon (26.2 miles) while raising money for our annually designated charity. Our mission is to support local charities in reaching their full potential while providing a safe and memorable experience for our runners. 

Over the years we have raised nearly $200,000 for local charities including St. Francis Hospital Newborn Intensive Care Unit, OutRun 38, Knox, Crayons for Cancer, House of Heroes and others.  We have done this despite being a 100% volunteer organization with a minimal operating budget.

Team MAD will be organizing 2 races in 2019 that will benefit a total of 5 charitable organizations in Connecticut.  Our hope is to raise enough money to be able to organize more events each year which will in turn allow us to help more organizations in reaching their potential.
