Announcing Our Runner for the
2026 Boston Marathon

Caitlin Hatt

I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be running the 2026 Boston Marathon on behalf of the Natick Education Foundation (NEF)! This is incredibly meaningful to me—not only because running Boston is a dream, but because I get to support a community that shaped who I am. Natick is my hometown, and the Natick Public Schools have had a lasting impact on my life, my family, and so many others.

NEF plays a vital role in strengthening education and lifelong learning across Natick. They fund innovative classroom projects, provide meaningful professional development for teachers, offer scholarships to future educators, and support programs that enrich the entire community. Every contribution, big or small, makes a meaningful impact and helps create a brighter future for the Natick community. Thank you for cheering me on and helping make every mile count. I’m honored to run for a cause so close to my heart, and I’m grateful for your support!
