Run for the Cause : Run with Floyd

Join Pretend City Board Member Floyd Amuchie in running the OC Half Marathon and help support Pretend City’s journey to the Great Park! As Floyd turns 40 this year, he realized the 2025 OC Marathon falls on his birthday—a perfect opportunity to combine his love for goal-setting, friendship, and making a difference. Inspired to do more, he set a bold challenge: raising $40,000 for Pretend City’s Great Park by running the marathon.

Will you join Floyd in celebrating his milestone and supporting Pretend City?
