Crohn’s & Colitis Team Challenge is a half marathon training program designed to raise funds to cure Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Team Challenge participants commit to help the millions of people who suffer from these diseases and to train for an exciting endurance event, the 2009 ING Miami Half Marathon. In exchange for this commitment, the Foundation equips participants with everything they need to cross the finish line, including several months of training from professional coaches, transportation and lodging during race weekend and the opportunity to share a life-changing experience with a group of caring individuals.
