Help us find a cure for CF

Run to Cure Cystic Fibrosis

Central Park. Napa Valley. Big Sur. The Eiffel Tower. Walt Disney World. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Breathe Team marathons are an incredible way to raise awareness and funding for cystic fibrosis, while running in some of the world’s premier races and experiencing beautiful scenery and iconic landmarks. Join the CF Foundation’s Breathe Team and help make a difference for people with cystic fibrosis. CF is a progressive genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. While progress has been made, we still lose precious lives to this disease every day. 


When you join Breathe Team, you join others who want to make an impact while experiencing the joy, challenges, and personal triumphs associated with going the distance. Whether you are an elite runner looking to set records, or simply looking for a new challenge, we have a race for you! 


We are here to support you from start to finish, with training, fundraising, and everything in between. When you join Breathe Team, you're backed by a community that’s with you every step of the way.


Your participation is crucial in helping us achieve our shared dream of a CF cure. To achieve this goal, more research is essential, requiring a very substantial investment. Even after a cure is found, customized care will be needed for generations to treat long-lasting health problems, making continued donor support vital. Fundraising is critical to advance our mission, and now is the time to act. Sign up today and take the first step towards changing lives! Help us find a cure for cystic fibrosis.

SOUTH TEXAS

Steph Hanson

Steph was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 3 years old. As an adult with two nonsense CF mutations, she’s passionate about bringing awareness to those who do not qualify for CFTR modulators. When she’s not engaging in advocacy work, Steph enjoys spending her time reading fantasy novels, gaming, being outdoors with her miniature schnauzers, and searching for the best tacos in South Texas.

Marco Rosales

Marco lives in Bellingham, Washington with this wife of nine years, Sarah, and his beloved Labrador retrievers, Cedar and Nova.
