Our community
When you join the Team Challenge family, you become part of a passionate community of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) supporters and advocates, all united in the quest for cures.
Our dedicated alumni — participants and coaches who come back year after year — are proudly known as the Blue Crew. They are the heart & soul of Team Challenge, and their commitment has driven our progress towards cures for the past 15 years.
Swag well earned
