My Breathe Team Story

Fundraising for Run Your Way 2026

Donate

Mitch Carter

I'm running my first half marathon at The Rocket City Marathon in December 2026, and I hope you will consider making a donation to the CF Foundation to support my effort!

I am running to raise funds for the CF Foundation in honor of my daughter who was diagnosed with CF early in her life. Like many living with CF, her days are filled with physical and therapeutic treatments that help to manage the symptoms caused by CF. Her ability to do this every day, twice a day, with numerous medications is inspiring and heartening as we watch her grow up.

For me, running started with a Turkey Trot two years ago and a few 5ks with friends. Since then, I've tried a handful of longer races and discovered the unexpected sense of elation that comes with running. It's also very prominent in my mind every time I am out there that I am extremely fortunate to be able to physically move my body and be active. For many with CF, it's not a given.

I'm raising funds for the CF Foundation, not only because of their search for a cure, but because of the direct impact they have on our lives through the care provided by the CF clinic at Children's of Alabama. We are so thankful to have a team behind her that helps improve her livelihood in so many ways.

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.
