Dreamfar High School Marathon

Dreamfar is a mentor-supported distance running program serving greater Boston teens of diverse backgrounds and abilities, with the mission to help teens develop physical and mental wellness, community, and purpose to pursue their goals and dreams.

We teach high school students that anything is possible, even completing a marathon.  With hard work, perseverance, and guidance from dedicated mentors, our runners realize their potential as they train for the Newport Marathon or Half-Marathon.  We teach our students realistic goal-setting and the value of commitment and teamwork – skills that ensure success in the classroom, on the road, and beyond.  Victories, such as running their first mile, motivate and empower students to accomplish more; challenges, like training in the cold Boston winter, teach them the power of dedication.
