My Breathe Team Story

Patricia Kandora

I'm lacing up again! this time for the 2026 Chicago Marathon as part of the Breathe Team supporting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.


This will be my second time running in support of this incredible cause, and it means even more to me now. The first time opened my eyes to the strength of this community and the real impact these funds have on advancing treatment and care. Coming back isn't just about running, it's about continuing to show up for something bigger than myself.


At the same time, this race is part of a personal journey. I'm chasing my second World Marathon Major star, and every step I take toward that goal is fueled by purpose, discipline, and the people I carry with me along the way.


Cystic fibrosis is a relentless disease, but so is the progress being made to fight it-and that progress depends on support.


If you're able to, I'd be incredibly grateful for your donation. No amount is too small, and every contribution goes directly toward making a difference in the lives of those affected.


Thank you for being part of this with me!
