“Training is more meaningful knowing that I’m making a difference for people living with lung disease. The support I’ve received from RHA has been terrific.”
“I’m running on behalf of a truly special person. A very close family friend of mine recently received a double lung transplant after years of suffering from interstitial lung disease.
“I am running in honor my Dad, who lost his heroic battle to Lung Cancer in November of 2022. My dad loved to run, and we loved to run together. Since his passing, I have run hundreds of miles in his legacy.”
