Dylan Mortimer did the NYC Marathon. If you know him, you know that he had two double lung transplants. One in 2017 and one two years later in 2019.His second transplant was in NYC and Dylan talks about what it was like to go back to the streets he could barely walk, pre-transplant. It so touching as Dylan chairs his story with us. I appreciate all the ways Dylan continues to inspire our CF Community. Our last question is: will he do another one? What do you think he might say? Also, I bet we might see some of his well-known glittery artwork featuring some running in the future. We can only hope!
