Meet the MetroWest YMCA's 2026 Boston Marathon Team

FRAMINGHAM, MA (December 31, 2025) - The MetroWest YMCA is excited to begin another inspiring journey as team members kick off training for the 2026 Boston Marathon. Alongside their training, each runner is fundraising to support vital YMCA programs that promote water safety, expand access to early education, prevent chronic disease, combat food insecurity, and more throughout our community.

This year’s team (pictured above, left to right) includes Paul Mascis, Shelle Edge, Samantha Bundy, Bekah Aucion, Adam Zandonella, Diego Puppin, Michael Galante, and Adam Doffini. Not pictured are Halima Yusuf and Shivani Mittal.

In the months ahead, the MetroWest YMCA looks forward to introducing each team member and sharing the personal stories that inspire them to run on behalf of the Y. Join us in celebrating their determination, passion, and commitment to making a meaningful impact.
