Tokyo Marathon Team

Camp Shriver is thrilled to be an Official Charity Partner of the 2026 Tokyo Marathon! We will host a team of 10 runners who will raise funds to support Camp Shriver, an inclusive program for children with and without disabilities.

Members of Team Camp Shriver will raise at least $5,250 to help low-income children with and without disabilities participate in year-round inclusive sports programming. Together, we will ensure that children of all abilities can learn and play…together.

Team Camp Shriver for the 2026 Tokyo Marathon is now full. We are accepting applications for our wait list should any runner be able to run in 2026: Apply Here for the Wait List

  • Guaranteed entry into the 2026 Tokyo Marathon,
  • Training support provided by professional running coach, Rick Muhr, including a training plan, weekly emails, and occasional team runs,
  • Bi-weekly emails with administrative support,
  • Weekly emails with fundraising coaching, one-on-one meetings with a development professional to help runners achieve their fundraising goals,
