Dear Family and Friends,
I think most of you do know my story. I was born with a heart murmur that later developed into a congenital heart defect: atrial-ventricular septal defect. I had open-heart surgery which was followed later by complete mitral valve heart block. I benefit from medical technology to keep ticking, a biventricular pacemaker. I soldier on because of research and great medical care. I am able to live a full life - that means running, cycling, and raising two kids. I give back to organizations that have supported me throughout my life.
I have been running, slogging, and walking half and full marathons since 2010. The Heart Mini is a can't-miss event, and I am excited to hit the road with all the other survivors and supporters in March!
Feel free to join me on March 16th, or donate to my page. Thank you for your suppprt! Love to all!
Ellie
