What We're Doing




Before the rays of the sun falls upon the sand, before the rooster makes its morning call, and before most wake to the new day, we'll be ready. With both hands on the chair, Arnie will push his father a distance totalling 26.2 miles. We're doing this for a great man. On Sunday March 21 2010, the Martinez Family will be running with or supporting Arnulfo Martinez Sr. We're doing this in remembrance of when he once stepped upon the ground and walked with ease, to commemorate all he's done for us in the past, and to be with him as he experiences his first marathon ever! So look out LA Marathon because the Martinez Family is coming.

BS in Business- accounting 1977
Married Harry C. Finney 2-14-82

My Sign: Scorpio
I'll run, walk and help in what ever needs to be done to complete this fine mission.
I'm proud to be a Martinez because our parents did everything in their power to give us a better life. So proud of our Dad who without knowing the english language and with only a 6th grade education he provided for his wife, and 6 children. He started a masonry business because as he puts it the only way to make money is to work for yourself not someone else.
I like nature, to hike, run, workout, and to be organized in the home at work and in my person.
