Do you or someone you know suffer from an Irritable Bowel
Disease like Crohn’s or Colitis? If so, this is just the episode for you! Cody
Geddes and Jackie Miller joined us from the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of
America’s Team Challenge. Team Challenge is composed of a group of people who
get together, get in shape, get motivated, and go run a half marathon to raise
funds for research projects. You don’t have to have an IBD to participate
either; you just need that desire to walk the talk!
CCFA offers a wonderful community to those suffering from an
IBD. CCFA provides information and education sessions and puts on Camp Oasis
for children with an IBD. In addition to Team Challenge, you can participate in
the annual Take Steps, Be Heard fundraising walk. For more information about
these events, log on to www.ccfa.org.
Team Challenge is currently recruiting for the Rock and Roll
Marathon in Vegas! You can join Walk the Talk with Kim’s Media Producer,
Lindsay Masters, as she cruises down the Vegas strip on December 2nd.
Here’s how you can get involved and sign up for an info session:
