Run For Jim's Heart Registration
Friends!
While we wait to be an official foundation, I will be running my first marathon on Sunday, October 4th in memory of my dad and what his heart stood for: health care access and health care education to everyone. This is the Run for Jim's Heart. From September 28-October 4, I'm asking for your miles! Whether it's a 1 mile, 5k or 10k walk/run, half-marathon or full marathon, that's up to you!
What: The Run For Jim’s Heart
When: September 28-October 4
Where: Virtual
Goal: Raise money to donate refurbished AEDs to rural community’s “first on the scene” in a medical emergency. For every AED donated, Ozark Mountain Education Group, the company my dad and step-mom built together, will be providing the training to those entities that are recipients of the AEDs.
How: The average cost of a refurbished AED is $900 and my personal goal is to raise money for at least one AED. I plan to raise my money by asking my family members (dad left me PLENTY) to sponsor me with a donation of $35 toward every mile I run (26.22). You can get your miles sponsored at any dollar amount of your choosing or simply support the memory of my dad with your walk/run!
Sign me up! Leave your donations here. To participate, please find the link just above!
Share: When posting about your walk/run, please tag Ozark Mountain Education Group (Springfield MO) and my dad on Facebook and #RunForJimsHeart.
