My Story…

Hello all! My name is David Petrovic: I’m a teacher, author and motivational speaker with autism. This is my first time running a half marathon and I’m hoping that by me doing this it shows anybody & everybody with a difference that they can make a difference. I’m also running to raise awareness about violence against women by collaborating with the organization, “Fight Like A Girl”. This organization was started by a family friend and her daughter, who happens to be Miss Ohio Teen USA Helyna Park. In addition, I’ll also be running to raise funds for the organization. “Love Doesn’t Shove”, which combats date violence. My lifelong goal is to leave this world in some way better then how I found it and I can only hope that my running this race uplifts those who come across my story to never give up!

Donate to help David raise money for 2026 University Hospitals Cleveland Marathon’s fundraising campaign.
