HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO FOR A CURE?

The Virginia Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is proud to present the Inaugural XTREME HIKE FOR A CURE. The festivities begin Friday afternoon, September 27 with check-in and dinner, continue Saturday with at 31 mile XTREME HIKE in the Shenandoah Valley, and conclude on Sunday morning with a celebratory breakfast.

Xtreme Hike is about reaching new heights – physically and philanthropically. It is a journey of passion, determination and personal triumph, as much as it is an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of people with cystic fibrosis.
The journey starts the moment you sign up. You’ll receive personal coaching, participate in training hikes and connect with a community of athletes who share your aspiration to reach new heights.
