Vi's Adventure Trek & Run

(Click on image to enlarge)

Attached is the application for VI's Adventure Trek & Run. This fun event is in honor of

Vi Jones-Medusky who has ALS.

Most of you know Vi from her many years of tri training. (Her daughter is Malia Jones) (Pomai works with her husband) (Wanda Kakugawa is her cousin) I had the pleasure of meeting Vi while in Bali with Pomai. She is a energetic positive person whom is very knowledgable about endurance training. We talked for a quite a while about it. I am amazed at her accomplishments in the Triathlon world. She is a inspiring person!

This event will benefit MDA of Hawaii.

Please consider supporting this cause if your schedule allows as I know I will.
