Racing for cures!

About Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis Known collectively as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis affects almost 1 in 100 people. They are painful, medically incurable diseases that attack the digestive system. Crohn's disease may attack anywhere along the digestive tract, while ulcerative colitis inflames only the large intestine (colon). Symptoms may include abdominal pain, persistent diarrhea, rectal bleeding, fever, and weight loss. Many patients require numerous hospitalizations and surgery. Most people develop the diseases between the ages of 15 and 35; however the incidence is increasing in children. </p> The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation is the largest non-profit, voluntary, health organization dedicated to finding cures for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The Foundation’s mission is to cure Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and to improve the quality of life of children and adults who are affected by these diseases. The Foundation works to fulfill its mission by funding research; providing educational resources for patients and their families, medical professionals, and the public; and furnishing supportive services for those afflicted with IBD.

Description

Team Challenge is the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation’s endurance program, created to raise funds to accelerate cures for IBD and support critical patient programs. With exclusive entries to races like the Falmouth Road Race, anyone can participate in Team Challenge.


Team Challenge is a community: a family bonded together for a purpose much larger than ourselves—to help fund cures for the millions of American’s living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. With every move we make and finish line crossed, we get closer to a world free of IBD.
