We're a relentless force! Now imagine how much stronger we'll be working as a team! Heart disease is still the no. 1 killer and stroke ranks no. 5 in our nation.
As most of you know, I lost my amazing husband Matt in 2018 when he suddenly and unexpectedly went into cardiac arrest on the treadmill at the gym. He was really working at being the healthiest he could be. He was an avid golfer who chose to walk the course and was really watching his diet. He was the healthiest I had ever seen him. Unfortunately, there were other plans for him. In order to help prevent this tragedy from happening to others and their families we have walked for Matt every year since 2018. Please join our team Mattitude as we walk to help raise funds for research, education and programs to reduce heart disease. It is a great time and it is great to all Matt's friends and family come together to support Matt.
We are walking together - not only for our own health, but also for yours. And for the health of our parents, our children, and our grandchildren.
The Heart Walk is a time of celebration, joy, and inspiration. It's also an event where people work together to support one single goal - to create a world free of heart disease and stroke.
This year, as we celebrate the Centennial of the American Heart Assocation, we will move into our second century with Bold Hearts focused on the work ahead while celebrating our lifesaving history with those who have made it possible. This relentless pursuit will continue until heart disease and stroke no longer exist.
Be a relentless force. Be a supporter of critical research. Be a lifesaver. Be a part of an unstoppable team. Join us now and walk to save lives.
