Awareness Month and NHF’s 75th Anniversary. Together we ran, walked, and cycled distances ranging from a 5K to a full marathon. Our thanks and gratitude go out to everyone who participated, donated, and supported- you made Run Red a success!

While our Run Red participants ran, walked, and biked from their local communities, our team of Red Tie Runners took the streets of NYC on March 19th for the 2023 United Airlines New York City Half Marathon For months leading up to the event, the runners trained and fundraised with the inheritable blood and bleeding disorders community at the forefront of their minds. Huge thank you for your dedication, strength, and commitment! Learn why some of our runners joined Team NHF:

“I'm a practicing pediatric hematologist and the Director of Pediatric Hemostasis & Thrombosis at the Hemophilia Treatment Center of Levine Cancer Institute and Levine Children's Hospital in Charlotte, NC. My passion for the bleeding disorders community doesn't stop at the doors of the hospital! I am honored to put my energy toward training for a half marathon in honor of persons with bleeding disorders.”
