My son, Jesse Cisneros, is training to compete in the Athletic Brewing IRONMAN 70.3 Oceanside on March 28, 2026—a demanding half-Ironman that includes a 1.2-mile swim, 56-mile bike ride, and 13.1-mile run. As a U.S. Marine, pushing his limits, staying disciplined, and striving for excellence are core parts of who he is, and this race is a powerful way to honor those values.

Taking on this challenge comes with high costs, including race registration, travel, lodging, training gear, nutrition, and essential safety equipment. I’m raising funds to help make his goal possible and to support the months of focused training required to show up ready on race day.

Every contribution—no matter the amount—helps him get one step closer to the starting line in Oceanside. Thank you for your generosity, encouragement, and belief in this mission. I’m proud of him for representing the Marine community and everyone supporting him as he takes on this challenge.
