I was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis when I was two months old. I'm participating in this event with my incredible (& very supportive) husband. We'll be running the half marathon! By God's grace, I have breath in my lungs to do so.

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 be a part of our shared dream forward - a cure for e v e r y o n e with CF.
