Crohn's and Colitis Canada
The most common forms of inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Crohns and Ulcerative Colitis affect over 320,000 Canadians. These chronic diseases can strike anyone at anytime, causing severe abdominal pain, cramping, fatigue and other issues. We aim to elevate the awareness of IBD within our community and raise money to support research to find a cure.
$5 of each registration will be forwarded to Crohn's and Colitis Canada at the conclusion of The Whistler Half Marathon each year.You can enhance your efforts with online fundraising too - easy to set up and even easier to share!
Donations of $20 or more made during registration or made online, will be recognized with a tax deductible receipt issued by Crohn's and Colitis Canada. Tax receipts will be issued by the end of the year in which the donation was made.

Liz's Story
Hi, my name is Liz Joyce. I am a self-employed personal trainer.
Outwardly I have the appearance of being the picture of health, but the driving force behind my involvement with the
Whistler Half Marathon and Crohn’s and Colitis Canada is that I have Ulcerative Colitis.
When you think of someone that lives with the daily uncertainty of a chronic illness, you may wonder, who is this
person?
What does the face of someone with Colitis look like? Well, this is me.
