Emily Rizzo will be running the TCS New York City Marathon on behalf of the Anthony Rizzo Family Foundation.
Taking in her first New York City marathon experience last fall, Emily — the wife of New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo — had been struck by the “electric” feel of the city as spectators cheered on the participants powering their way through the 26.2-mile journey throughout the boroughs.
Anthony — who recently wrapped his third season in New York — was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in April 2008, months after the Boston Red Sox selected him in the sixth round of the 2007 MLB Draft. A lifelong athlete, Emily has always considered herself a “spontaneous runner,” exercising for pleasure rather than sport.“It was always more of a hobby for me. It’s just a way to get out of your own head sometimes and a way to escape reality,” Emily said.Upon moving to Chicago when Rizzo was a member of the Cubs , Emily ran as “a way to get out and learn the city.”
With Emily now engrossed in marathon training, she’s abiding by her own timetable as the Rizzos’ schedule is relatively “fluid.”
