If we’re honest, our family didn’t know what Cystic Fibrosis was until our son was diagnosed with it at 13 days old. We had heard the words, but couldn’t tell you anything about the disease. Now we know more than we ever wanted to. Our sweet AJ lives with Cystic Fibrosis and is already such a strong fighter! We named our team AJ’s Adventurers because we know his life is going to be marked by strength, bravery, and adventure. We walk for a cure for our awesome boy, and for so many others.

Important note on Attendance at Foundation Events:
Infections can exacerbate CF symptoms and worsen lung function, so we ask attendees at Foundation-sponsored events to observe the following best practices to reduce the risk of germ transmission:
To further reduce the risk of cross-infection, the Foundation’s attendance policy recommends that all people with CF maintain a safe 6-foot distance from each other at all times while attending an outdoor Foundation-sponsored event. All Great Strides walks are non-smoking events.
