For some of my friends and colleagues, CF isn’t an abstract cause or something they occasionally read about. It affects their children, relatives, and people they love. I’ve seen enough of what that means to know that this is a cause worth showing up for.

So... I’m running.

Apparently at some point in my life I decided that voluntarily running unreasonable distances while simultaneously asking everyone I know for their financial support was a perfectly normal hobby.

And now YOU get to be part of it.

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic, life-shortening disease that affects the lungs and other vital organs. Tremendous progress has been made in treatment, but there is still no cure - and far too many people with CF continue to face challenges that most of us will never have to think about.

That’s where this mildly chaotic fundraising operation comes in.... 

Donate $10. Donate $25. Donate the amount you would otherwise spend on a coffee, a beer, an ill-advised online purchase, or something you absolutely did not need from Amazon at 10:47 p.m.
 

Donate because you know someone with CF. Donate because you know me. Donate because you want to encourage this behavior. Donate because you want to see me suffer through yet another 13.1 miles I have committed myself to running.

I am not particularly picky about your motivation.

The important part is that every donation helps support research, treatments, and ultimately the goal that matters most: finding a cure for cystic fibrosis.
 

I’m running for the friends, coworkers, parents, kids, siblings, cousins, and families whose lives are directly touched by CF.
 

And I’d be incredibly grateful if you’d help me support them.
 

Thank you
