Getting out for a fun run/walk with friends is a great way to take care of your heart!

As adults we need 150 minutes of physical activity each week. The great thing is you can choose the activity, how often and who come along!

PCHC loves a good run/walk! Thanks to the Polar Bear Run for hosting such a great event for 41 years!!

Heart Strong. Live Well.
