Run4Good 2025

I am Brother Sebastian Jasiorkowski, LC (26 years of age), a Pole from Krakow. I am a student in the Faculty of Philosophy at APRA. I have always had a passion for sport, including athletics. I coached athletics and football in high school. Now I am happy to organise a running team for our university for two years running, and to praise God with the talents He has given us!

I am Brother Joseph Geiger from the United States, studying my first year of theology at APRA. I have done many years of apostolate with the youth of ECYD, and am now in my final years of formation before ordination to the priesthood. I have always enjoyed running, and I thank this opportunity to participate in this marathon.

I am Brother Moisés Viloria, LC. I am 24 years old, Venezuelan and currently studying philosophy at APRA. Sport has always been a fundamental part of my life, not only for physical well-being, but also because I believe it has a lot to teach about perseverance, discipline and life itself. Participating in the Rome Marathon 2025 is an opportunity for me to grow personally and spiritually. I want to offer it for all those people who would like to run but cannot, and for those who have asked me to carry a special intention. It will be a challenge, but I am convinced that each step will be an opportunity to give myself and overcome my limits.

I am Brother Balam Loza, LC. I am 30 years old and I am attending a theology degree course, which is the last period of study before ordination to the priesthood. I really enjoy studying, because I believe that people need solid reasons to take the step of faith. Sport is a fundamental pillar for me, as I believe that physical, mental and spiritual balance is necessary to be able to convey the message of the Gospel. This year I signed up to represent the University team in the 2024 Rome Marathon, and I hope to do so in the best possible way. It is true that I have been training steadily for over a year, but it is always a thrill to know how I will meet that challenge on 17 March.

I am Father Chrystopher Aguilar from Mexico and I am 43 years old. I had the valuable opportunity to obtain a degree in philosophy and theology at the Athenaeum. In recent years, I have taken advantage of the post-graduate courses on offer to keep myself in ongoing formation. This has given me the opportunity to participate, together with the Athenaeum team, on two occasions already, in the Tour To France, the cycling pilgrimage from the Vatican to the sanctuary of La Salette the first year, and in Lourdes the second. This year, changing discipline, I venture to run my first marathon, and what’s more in the 30th Rome Marathon, in the Jubilee Year. It will be a great pride to do so wearing the uniform of my Alma Mater, the A…

It is also the first time I am running proudly representing the Regina Apostolorum University.
