Thank you to all our runners, walkers, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters for making the 2019 Big Peach Sizzler 10K and 5K the best ever! We hope you will come back in 2020!
Thanks to You, the Big Peach Sizzler is Ready to Celebrate an Important Milestone! 2020 marks the 10th Year that “The Sizzler” has served as the primary fundraiser for Atlanta-based Miles for Cystic Fibrosis. The race was “gifted” to Miles for CF by the Big Peach Running Co in 2011. That first year, proceeds to the charity were approximately $200. Since that time, thanks to your participation, the dedication of our staff and volunteers, the support of our sponsors and community partners and the generosity of our donors and fundraisers the race has provided $350,000 to fund Miles for CF Initiatives. Update on the 2020 Race We want nothing more than to celebrate this milestone with you and to thank you in person at the Finish Line on Labor Day Morning. As important as the funds generated by the race are to Miles for CF, our number one priority is producing an event that is safe for all runners, walkers, volunteers, staff, and partners. We are closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation as it continues to evolve. Registration will open as soon as large gatherings are permitted to return and we are confident that we can meet all the necessary safety requirements to host several thousand folks. In the Meantime, Will You Lend a Hand? Miles for CF launched an initiative in early April to provide emergency financial assistance to families in the CF Community struggling to get by as a result of COVID 19. In 6 short weeks, we have been able to fill more than 30 requests. Over 70% of the grants have been to provide food for families who have children living with CF. If you can help with this effort, please DONATE HERE. Every dollar helps. $200 will feed one child for a month. |

Miles for Cystic Fibrosis
Beginning with the inaugural Georgia Marathon & Half Marathon in 2007, Miles for Cystic Fibrosis has hosted Team 65ROSES in a variety of races throughout Metro Atlanta and beyond. Team members help raise money and awareness for cystic fibrosis, a life-shortening disease that affects 30,000 people in the United States. Team 65ROSES has raised over $720,000 which has been used to encourage and provide financial assistance for healthy physical activity for children and adults with cystic fibrosis, to help provide emergency financial assistance for those with CF, and to support research toward better treatments and a cure.
Since 2011, Miles for Cystic Fibrosis has been proud to bring to the Atlanta race scene the Big Peach Sizzler 10K, which has now become a Labor Day tradition. In addition, our organization promotes an active lifestyle and brings together countless volunteers to other running events.
