Michael Osborne is a lung cancer survivor and the volunteer event coordinator for Breathe Deep Columbia 5K Walk in Memory of Dr. Clement B. Knight on Saturday, April 26, 2014 in Town Center, Columbia, Maryland. There is also a 1K alternate route for those challenged by the longer walk.

Did you know that lung cancer is the top cancer killer in the United States, claiming approximately 160,000 lives per year? It is a devastating disease that can afflict anyone, regardless of smoking history, gender, or ethnicity. All proceeds from this event go to LUNGevity Foundation to fund lung cancer research.
