I can't believe that America's Greatest Heart Run & Walk is 50 years old. For that matter, I can't believe that I am 71 years old! I have to say that I am lucky to be here. Back in September of 2015, I had a Cardiac Catheterization that revealed a 99% blockage of my Left Anterior Descending Artery (LAD), also known as the "Widow Maker". I was lucky that it was discovered, repaired with a stent, but I did have a minor Heart Attack during the procedure. I am fortunate that my wife Jan is helping me live a healthy lifestyle, and I'm thankful for all of the research the American Heart Association has funded over the years that has resulted in life saving procedures and medications that have enabled me to live a full and happy life.
I've been participating in America's Greatest Heart Run & Walk for over 35 years and over that time, with your help, I have raised over $310,000 to help the Heart Association continue their life saving work.
This year's event will take place on March 2nd and I'll be walking again. If you wish to help me reach my goal of $5,000, you can make an online donation on this page or you can send me a check, made out to the American Heart Association. Either way you will be supporting me, our team, the American Heart Association and Saving Lives.
Thank you for all of the support that you have given me over the years. I look forward to hearing from you.
Be Safe and Stay Well,
Jim
