Ngozi and Apolo heard more from Winter about raising $500,000 for research into prostate cancer, the disease that killed her dad, Michael; running all across the world in marathons on all seven continents ; and of course, how Vinecki got her name.Vinecki got started competing early in life, running her first 5K race at just 5 years old. By age 10, she had done a 10-mile race and was getting into half-marathons and marathons.
The family started making weekly trips from Michigan to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. That didn’t stop Vinecki from running. In total, she has raised $500,000 for prostate cancer research and is still raising today in honor of her dad, Michael Vinecki, a musician and auctioneer, who died March 12, 2009, at age 40. Vinecki remembers him playing with soundboards, going on snowmobiling trips and taking the family to races.
