My Breathe Team Story

Fundraising for 2026 Disneyland® Half Marathon

Charles Mathis

Nearly 12 years ago I found out my son had Cystic Fibrosis, since then it has been a life of medications, doctors appointments and now sports. I became a member of the Breathe team for the love of running and to support my son so that he and other's living with CF can enjoy a long life of sports, fun and excitement. Join me as we run for a cure.



CF is a genetic, life-shortening disease that devastates the lungs, pancreas, and other vital organs. CF makes it difficult to breathe and fight life-threatening infections, often leading to extensive lung damage and respiratory failure.



Every person born with cystic fibrosis is on a unique journey and experiences this challenging disease differently. While progress has been made, a long road lies ahead for far too many people fighting this terrible disease. We need a cure so that everyone with CF has a better chance to live a long, healthy life.



Will you help us end cystic fibrosis?



By donating to my fundraising goal, you have the power to advance the research and science needed to drive our shared dream forward - a cure for everyone with CF.
