I Run to Cure CF!
My name is Doug Joseph and I love to challenge myself. I ran the half marathon last year and am challenging myself again this year to run the full. I decided if I do this I might as well try and raise some money to support the fight against Cystic Fibrosis. I like doing things that are hard and seem out of my reach. Raising money and awareness for a hard disease is what I am attempting to do.
Description
Cystic fibrosis is a rare, genetic disease found in about 40,000 people in the U.S. causing persistent lung infections and limiting the ability to breath over time. Those living with this disease are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends, and co-workers --all struggling each day just to breathe and live normal, healthy lives.
While there has been significant progress in treating this disease, there is still no cure and too many lives are cut far too short. By participating in the Pittsburgh Marathon on behalf of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, I run to help add tomorrows to the lives of all people living with cystic fibrosis today. Please make a difference and support me by donating to my fundraising campaign today!
Then please consider joining the team! For more information - reach out to Fallon DeRiggi - fderiggi@cff.org
