It's a non-competitive walking event that's geared to companies. They participate by forming teams of employees, family members, friends and others.
Participants raise money to fight heart disease and stroke, then walk in the event.
Most walks are less than five miles. Thousands of people participate every year because it's so rewarding. In fact, the American Heart Walk is so popular that it's become one of the nation's fastest-growing walking events. Spend time with friends and family. Help save lives by raising funds to help fight cardiovascular diseases, America's No. 1 killer.
