The Achilles Freedom Team

In 2020, The Cigna Group became the presenting sponsor of the Achilles Freedom Team, a program that gives wounded military personnel and veterans the opportunity to train and participate in mainstream marathons. We partner to support their efforts in marathons across the country, including New York City, Boston, Chicago, the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, D.C., and more.
