About Me: 

Hi everyone! I'm Leslie! I love living in Tallahassee and the Big Bend. I play soccer here, perform with a local community marching band, love to kayak and bike ride, and just love getting the most out of everything our region has to offer. And, most importantly, my family is here!

Why I Walk:

Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in our country, but together we can push back! Let's walk together make a difference in the lives of others in OUR community!

I’m walking for my dad as he navigates life with atherosclerosis. I'm walking in memory of dear friends I’ve lost far too soon and a soccer teammate who collapsed on the playing field. I'm walking for survivors like my coworker who had open heart surgery and a friend who had a stroke last year. I walk in support of a mother who had to endure the unthinkable loss of her son to sudden cardiac death. These are just a few of the ways cardiovascular disease has impacted people in my life.  

How You Can Help:

When you join my team or donate, you aren't just hitting a fundraising goal - you are funding the research that keeps dads around longer, prevents strokes in the prime of life, and helps us understand how to protect our friends and loved ones.

Please join me at Cascades Park or make a donation today!
