Team Superstars

We are excited to introduce you to the incredible kid experts and grateful families who are running at Grandma’s Marathon weekend 2024.

Some of our kid experts for the cancer and blood disorders program have joined Team Superstars and will be raising funds for the Cancer Kids Fund while running the Medtronic Twin Cities 10 Mile race on Sunday, Oct. 1, 2023.

Delina was born with a congenital heart defect known as ventricular septal defect. At age 27, she had surgery at Children's Minnesota to repair it.

The Gaines family donated to Children's Minnesota after hearing Brad and Barb Turgeon's story, two Team Superstars runners.

Sota encourages Minnesotans and friends to get outside, embrace the cold weather and enjoy the snow and beauty of our state, while wearing their best lumber-Jack and Jill attire. The Lumberjack 5K is not competitive, so chip timers and race bibs will not be provided. Registration includes a Sota lumberjack bomber hat and one free beer. Fifteen percent of event proceeds will be donated to Children's.

Registration for 2019 is now full. Please show your support for our Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon or TC 10-mile athletes by donating to their pages, or joining us on race day to cheer them on! The official Children's cheering section will be at the corner of Summit and Cleveland Ave. in St. Paul.

Go the extra mile by running the Grandma's Marathon or Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon and fundraising on behalf of Children's Team Superstars. Learn more here.

Join for a pop-up 5K in support of Children's Minnesota. After the run, stay to shop, participate in giveaways and enjoy snacks and beverages. Nine percent of sales will be donated to Children's.
