Ashkelon 2025

Before making Aliyah in 2003, I attended many Yachad Shabbatonim and even hosted several participants for Shabbat when my wife and I were chapter heads in NCSY.  Now that we live in Israel, we host Yachad participants who are learning in Yeshivot across Israel.   So when I saw the ad for Team Yachad, it was a no brainer!  Not only was this a great experience but I finished with a PR (personal record) in arguably one of the most difficult half marathons around, despite the weather!

Crossing the finish line soaked to the core was not ideal but the amazing feeling of being able to raise money for Team Yachad in Jerusalem– nothing like it!
