My Breathe Team Story
Liz Murphy
Fundraising for 2025 AJC Peachtree Road Race
Liz Murphy
I'm participating in Atlanta's Peachtree 10K Road Race July 4th in memory and honor of Andy Lipman.
I'll be walking in this, my first 10K, (not running as Andy always did). I've known Andy for many years, and he continues to inspire me.
This would have been Andy's 29th AJC Peachtree Road Race, a remarkable feat for anyone, but particularly for a person living with CF. I'll be walking and fundraising for the CF Foundation in his memory, less than 6 months since he passed suddenly from an aneurysm.
Andy's life and his motto "Live your dreams. Love your life." continue to inspire me. I would be honored to have your support as we raise critical funds for the CF Foundation's mission for a cure in memory of Andy.
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I’m running to help change that reality.
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.
