65 Roses for Cystic Fibrosis 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2 Race Description
Every May, the cystic fibrosis community comes together for CF Awareness Month. We are excited to do our part to help create awareness. The “65 Roses” story dates back to 1965 when an observant 4-year-old, hearing the name of his disease for the first time, pronounced cystic fibrosis as "65 Roses." Today, “65 Roses” is a term often used by young children with cystic fibrosis to pronounce the name of their disease. Join our first ever 65 Roses for Cystic Fibrosis 1M 5K 10K 13.1 26.2. Between the medal and the neck ribbon, there are 65 roses.
Also, at least 20% of every registration to The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, their mission is to cure cystic fibrosis and to provide all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives by funding research and drug development, partnering with the CF community, and advancing high-quality, specialized care.
