SHERIDAN, WYOMING – November 07, 2024 – Abbott, a global healthcare leader, is proud to announce the formation of Team Abbott, a worldwide community of runners united by their passion for health and fitness. This initiative underscores Abbott's commitment to helping people live their best lives through the power of good health.
The inspiration behind Team Abbott stems from the recognition that marathons, while individual races, are ultimately a team sport. "Ask anyone who has run one and they’ll tell you: Marathons are a team sport," says an Abbott spokesperson. "Literally speaking, no, marathons can’t be relayed by a team of athletes, nor are they won by team organizations. But the process of training to run 26.2 miles, and attaining the health needed to do so, is a team effort."
