Welcome to my fundraising page for the NYC Marathon in support of Autism Research!

As I am starting my training to run my very first marathon in the iconic streets of New York City this coming November, I have decided to dedicate this new challenge to making a meaningful difference by running for charity.

I have selected autism research as it is a cause touching the lives of countless individuals and families. Through my own experiences and interactions, I've come to understand the challenges faced by those on the autism spectrum and the importance of ongoing research and support services.

Guillaume and Jean Paul are running it as well and together we are combining efforts under the team “The Gallic Frogs” to reach our goal.

Join us on this incredible journey as we strive to turn these 26.2 miles into meaningful impact!

Cheers,

Antoine
