2008 AIDS Run

Greetings!

I will be running the 2008 AIDS Run in Chicago, which is a 5K. This is a fundraising endeavor, and I am hoping to raise at least $200.

AIDS is a long held and personal cause of mine. As some of you may know I was misdiagnosed as HIV+ in 1985. For a little over 2 years I thought I was going to die. Once it was determined it was a false test result, I dedicated myself to fight AIDS.

In 1994 I lost my childhood friend David Wagle to this terrible disease. He was a shining star who had a promising career in architecture. Sadly is life was cut short in his prime. I still miss him.

I am determined that in my lifetime we will find a cure for this horrible disease. In the meantime money raised from the AIDS directly goes to services and support for people HIV/AIDS in the Chicago area.

You can visit my fundraising page and sponsor me. Any amount is greatly appreciated.
