On December 8, 2002 I finished the Honolulu Marathon. I'm proud to have completed this life goal and even prouder that I've raised nearly $6,000 to help those living with HIV and AIDs. Although the Aids Marathon is now only a pleasant memory for me, the struggle to fight HIV and AIDs is far from over.

You can click on logo above to learn more about  the  organization that I ran for and then click here to make a donation benefiting Aids Project Los Angeles. Since I was not a serious runner prior to starting the Aids Marathon Training Program,  I documented my transition into a marathoner in my training journal.  If you want to learn more about the growing sport of marathoning in general, check out my Marathon History Page.
