Ashlye Melecio Hardrick

This year marks my third Heart Walk, and I'm proud to lead the 4:23 Steppers on November 1, 2025.

I walk for my mom, who was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy and through strength, perseverance, and care has overcome it. I walk for family members battling high blood pressure. Their journey reminds me that every heartbeat matters and that living a heart-healthy life is something worth fighting for.

I also walk in honor of those who can't - and alongside those who continue to fight. Together, we can raise awareness, inspire hope, and support life-saving research.

Every step, every walker, and every donation makes a difference.

Please consider joining my team or making a donation to help the American Heart Association continue its mission of building longer, healthier lives.

Every Step a Prayer, Every Mile a Victory

Thank you for supporting this cause that's so close to my heart.
