Team BOLT (bilateral orthotopic lung transplant) is back on the trail and training for the Virginia  Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Xtreme Hike!  The “Xtreme Hike” event involves a series of training hikes which culminate in a twenty-six mile (or more) expedition at Massanutten State Park in September.   Dan and I had a blast in 2021 and are back for seconds in 2025.

This year, it is personally going to be more challenging.  I’ve been on anti-rejection medications now for eight years.   While they keep me alive, they are extreme hard on my body.  Maintaining good health and fitness becomes more difficult each year, severely affecting quality of life. 

This is one of many reasons to support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation through Team BOLT.  Your donation will help advance research in the areas of CF and lung transplantation and allow people like me to live longer and better quality lives.  Team BOLT and the CFF need your help!

Thanks so much for reading this and please think of us as we are out gathering sore muscles, great memories, bug bites, and blisters.
