Holly Tri's Again!
Me with my biggest supporter (my mama) before my 2nd tri with TC back in 2015!
Well, here we go again! After a two year COVID hiatus, I'm thrilled to finally get back to training with Team Challenge. I'm even more excited to get back to raising funds to support my mission in finding cures for IBD. This year I will be fundraising for and participating in the Malibu Triathlon in orange & blue on September 18. They always say things are "like riding a bicycle". We'll see how true that is as I get back on my bike and back in the water for the first time in far too long! Please consider making a donation today to not only help support me during my training, but also to help make an impact on the lives of the millions of people suffering from IBD!
About Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis
Known collectively as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis affect millions of Americans. They are painful, medically incurable diseases that attack the digestive system. Crohn's disease may attack anywhere along the digestive tract, while ulcerative colitis inflames only the large intestine (colon). Symptoms may include abdominal pain, persistent diarrhea, rectal bleeding, fever, and weight loss. Many patients require numerous hospitalizations and surgery. Most people develop the diseases between the ages of 15 and 35; however the incidence is increasing in children.
The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation is the largest non-profit, voluntary, health organization dedicated to finding cures for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The Foundation’s mission is to cure Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and to improve the quality of life of children and adults who are affected by these diseases. The Foundation works to fulfill its mission by funding research; providing educational resources for patients and their families, medical professionals, and the public; and furnishing supportive services for those afflicted with IBD.
