I Hate Onions

On November 21, 2020 By Aaron Hill3 Comments

When I was a kid, I had a secret weapon against onions. It was an uncanny ability to discover even the slightest presence of the pungent vegetable. No matter how finely my mom chopped, blended, or pureed them, they were no match for my ninja sense. As soon as the dish touched my tongue my …

I don’t know what I need

On October 8, 2020 By Aaron Hill3 Comments

There are hundreds of books out there on grieving, death, and loss. I've started to read a few hoping to find something valuable. I don't even know what I should be looking for, though. I don't know what I need. Tonight is a dance night for the girls. I dropped them off and the boys …

Contrasts and Balance

On June 20, 2020 By Aaron Hill4 Comments

It’s been quite a while since I got out for a run and boy have I missed it! For the past few months I have not even wanted to run, chalk that up to depression or circumstances or a combo of the two. I got out for a run a couple days ago and again …

There have been many times over the past three years when no one was around and I was alone to face myself.

Meaningful Suffering

On February 1, 2019June 20, 2020 By Aaron Hill4 Comments

I had a choice. I could stop running, call it quits and head back to the chalet to warm my feet up by the fire. Relentless Forward Progress? Maybe not today.

One challenge with giving money to a cause is that we don't always see exactly where the money goes.  Well, I'm writing to show you exactly where the $7,000+ we raised in January has gone! First-Ever Scientific Research Awards Funded by ALK Positive in Partnership with LUNGevity Foundation ALK-positive lung cancer patients take matters into …

I have to admit, I have a horrible relationship with hope.

3 Reasons Winter Doesn’t Suck Anymore

On February 23, 2018 By Aaron Hill3 Comments

Before I made the decision to run the Gateway Trail in January to raise money for lung cancer research, I was not really an outdoor winter runner.  I would occasionally run a few times each winter just to say I did, but this winter has been very different.  I committed to running in any temperature …

21 Miles & $7,000

On January 20, 2018January 31, 2018 By Aaron Hill2 Comments

I'm still a little overwhelmed by what happened last weekend. I knew I needed to take a few days to let it settle before writing a summary, final fundraising tally, and a huge thank you to everyone. I started at the corner of Jackson and University near Regions Hospital in St Paul at 10:00 am. …

I am so excited to share that we've crossed the $2000 mark!  My original goal was $1000!  I can't thank enough those who gave.  You have given me even more motivation to hit the trail this coming Saturday and run the 21 miles from downtown St. Paul to downtown Stillwater.  Really, its true.  Your donations …
