Lace up those tennis shoes and join us for our first annual "Run For Your Life" run/walk event to be held on August 16, 2008 at Water Works Park in Des Moines, Iowa.

The event begins at 8:00am. The run/walk aims to increase awareness of heart disease and its impact on individuals, families, and communities. The run (3K or 5K) or walk is designed to fit any fitness level whether it be the beginning walker or the seasoned runner. The event is open to the public, families, and cardiac patients. Snacks and a live band will encourage participants to the finish line.

Anyone making a $25.00 donation to the Iowa Heart Foundation will receive a T-shirt and gift bag. Proceeds generated from this event have been designated for charitable healthcare services for Iowans. Pre-registration is required by calling (515) 633-3555.
