NBC Chicago's Zoraida Sambolin and Kye Martin want to take their running shoes to New York and anchor from the "Today Show" plaza in April, but they need your help to get there.
Zoraida and Kye will join the "Today Show's" #RunforTODAY team to promote the benefits of women running. Women at NBC stations across the country will join the Today Show's Natalie Morales and Erica Hill in participating in local spring races to raise awareness and encourage fitness.
The local anchors with the most running team members get to go to New York to run the MORE/FITNESS/SHAPE Women's Half-Marathon with Natalie and Erica and anchor a morning show from the "Today Show" plaza the next day.
Viewers can help Zoraida and Kye get to New York by signing up for their team below, and interacting with them on social media by helping them build an epic running playlist for them when they represent the NBC Chicago morning team in the Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle March 29.
You can send your suggestions via Twitter using the hashtag #RunforTODAY and tagging @NBCChicago, @StrideNBC, @ZoraidaSambolin or @KyeCommuteNBC. You can also share your suggestions using the hashtag on Facebook.
