Heidi and Dad are happy that you are helping us save and improve people's lives!
Ill be running my first marathon on May 2, 2010 and I want to invite YOU to partner with me in the experience. I'll be running the BMO Vancouver Marathon and my goal is simply to finish injury-free. I never thought of myself as much of a runner but since I started training for the marathon I am often reminded that it is a beautiful thing to have a healthy heart that pumps the way it should. It's easy to take it for granted - and sadly, one in three deaths in Canada is due to heart disease and stroke. I have had 3 beloved grandparents leave this world due to the effects of stroke. Last year I had one of the most frightening days of my life when my father had a stroke. Thankfully he is recovering, but it's really hard work. It was a big wake-up call to me that I could be making better decisions about my health!
PLEASE join me in supporting the Heart and Stroke Foundation of B.C. & Yukon. Your donation will enable the Heart & Stroke Foundation to continue its initiatives to reduce exposure to smoke, promote the benefits of exercise, and encourage Canadians to eat healthier.
Thank you! I appreciate your support! HA
