Why Participate with Team JDRF?
Why just run a marathon when you can run and be part of the cure? Living with type 1 diabetes is like running a marathon - the dietary restrictions and multiple daily blood tests and injections of insulin seem endless. The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is getting closer to the finish line: a cure to this devastating disease. With your help we can continue the research that will lead to better treatments, and eventually a cure for type 1 diabetes. Join JDRF in your training and together we will cross not only the Pittsburgh Marathon finish line, but also the finish line to a cure!
