Lace up your sneakers and get ready to join us on Saturday, June 5 for the Denver Heart and Stroke Walk. The Heart and Stroke Walk is the American Heart Association’s premier event for raising funds to save lives from this country’s No. 1 and No. 5 killers – heart disease and stroke.
We’re excited to announce that this year, the Denver Heart and Stroke Walk will be a digital celebration where you will join 1 million walkers from across the nation as we all move as one. The Heart and Stroke Walk has always been about coming together, getting hearts pumping, honoring survivors, raising lifesaving funds – and having fun along the way. Participants can look forward to all of that and more again this year.
This one-of-a-kind experience includes a month-long fitness challenge with the opportunity to compete for the ultimate bragging rights. The entire event culminates on June 5 as we come together and celebrate all that we have accomplished.
To ensure you don’t miss out on any of the fun, register today by visiting denverheartwalk.org. And, don’t go it alone! There’s still time to create a team with your friends and family! Together, you can fundraise and help fight heart disease and stroke.
To keep the Denver Heart and Stroke Walk celebration going year-round, we’re adding a new component to the line-up of activities. This fall, we will be organizing an American Heart Association team that will train and run the Colfax Marathon together. If you’re interested in learning more about how you can Run with Heart in the Colfax Marathon, please reach out to Kayla Hammond at kayla.hammond@heart.org.
The American Heart Association is devoted to saving people from heart disease and stroke – the two leading causes of death in the world. We team with millions of volunteers to fund innovative research, fight for stronger public health policies and provide lifesaving tools and information to prevent and treat these diseases. The Dallas-based association is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke.
