Taking Strides to Cure Cystic Fibrosis! 

Are you up to the challenge?  Join the CF Striders as they train and participate in the Carlsbad Marathon while at the same time helping to raise money for one cause-to help find a cure for CF.  Put your body and mind to the test while raising critical funds for research that will help assure the development of the means to cure and control cystic fibrosis and improve the quality of life for those with the disease.

In return for raising money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, participants receive:
• Fundraising resources and support from the professional fundraising staff at CFF
• A discount on formal endurance training for the event through In-Motion
• A great way to get in shape
• A chance to make a difference!

As a CF Strider you will be raising funds for the 30,000 Americans that are affected with CF.  Our online fundraising tools make it fast and easy to reach out to friends, family and co-workers as you strive to reach your goal.  You can create your own personal fundraising page online that will track your progress and you will have access to prewritten emails with a link to your page that you can send out to help with your efforts.  The CFF staff are available to help you throughout your race preparations.

We will have a CFF tent on charity row where you can warm-up with your fellow teammates before the race and we will be stationed along the course to provide support and guidance during the race.  Each Team Member will receive a CF Striders shirt to wear so you can show your pride during the race. 

If you are up to the challenge, then get started by clicking the Become A Fundraiser button and proceed with setting up your fundraising page.
