We are only weeks away from going to Las Vegas! Don't let fundraising scare you! Keep going! Have fun with it! You are helping to find a cure for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis! be your own fundraising monster!

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Recommitment Day!

Hello!

Today is recommitment day! What are you going to do? Deal in or out?! It would be great if Crohn's or colitis patients had that easy of a decision. Unfortunately, they are "in" until we find a cure!

I hope your experience so far will convince you to "deal in" and continue the journey that you started! Las Vegas is going to be an experience that you will not forget. I hope that you will join the 1000+ Team Challenge participant's at the start line as we cross the finish line to find a cure!

We Are Half Way To VEGAS!!

Time flies when you are having fun right? We have hit the halfway mark in our training for the Rock N' Roll Las Vegas Half Marathon! The team completed seven miles on Saturday! We were lucky and just missed the rain!

I encourage all of our participants to finish the journey you started and cross that finish line with us in Las Vegas! With recommitment right around the corner, I want you to think about all of the people that you are helping by being a part of Team Challenge!

Don't let them down! They need you and your team needs you!

Remember, Team Challenge is changing lives one mile at a time and we are only half way there!
