2015 Rochester Heart Walk


The American Heart Association wants to reach an ambitious goal called the 2020 Goal by 2020:

- Improve cardiovascular health by 20 percent,

and

 - Reduce cardiovascular and stroke deaths by 20 percent.

Join MCC and support the AHA work towards this goal - participate in the 2015 Rochester Heart Walk on April 25.  Start a team, join a team, donate, and/or walk!  So many ways to participate.  Visit the MCC Heart Walk Team page now!

It’s a simple challenge, but if we all do our part, we’ll contribute to raise a tremendous amount of support and funds for our lifesaving work. And it’s desperately needed. Heart disease and stroke are the No. 1 and No. 4 killers in America.  Think ahead to 2020, and imagine a city full of people, alive and victorious over heart disease and stroke because of the actions people like you take right now. This is the future we all need to believe in – we can make this future happen.

Take care of yourself and walk!  Attached is a flyer with information about the 2015 Rochester Heart Walk.  Also attached are some good reads on the importance of incorporating physical activity into your life.  Walking is one of the simplest ways you can improve your life – why not start now?
