Marine Corps Marathon Semper Fi & America's Fund Team 2025

Dear Family & Friends,

Please join me one more time as I proudly support the "Semper Fi & America's Fund" as a Community Athlete for the 2025 Marine Corps Marathon Semper Fi & America's Fund Team.  This will be the 10th time I have run the USMC Marathon during their 50th Anniversary on 26 October 2025. The USMC Marathon was my first marathon back in 1995 when I qualified for the 100th Boston Marathon, and it still remains my favorite marathon.

I have chosen $1,775 as my monetary goal in honor of the USMC being established back in 1775. This year marks the 250th Anniversary of the United States Marine Corps on 10 November!
