2000 Take Part in Start! Heart Walk

It was a chilly Sunday morning on the beach at Rocky Neck State Park in Niantic, but that didn't deter 2000 people from joining our 2008 Start! Walk for Heart Health. Rebecca and I (the picture of health to the left), along with Tina Detelj from News Channel 8, were emcees to kick off this 5K walk through the park. Subway, Lawrence & Memorial Hospital, Pfizer, Mohegan Sun and other major corporate sponsors played a big part in making this year an even bigger success. Rebecca brought along baby Liliana, who seemed to thoroughly enjoy the outdoor experience. Heart disease touches practically everyone, and a few changes in a daily exercise routine can really make a difference. A walk through a place like Rocky Neck does make it a pleasure - and no, we didn't take the shortcut this time!
