We Want to
Hear From You
Tell us your inspirational story of how you have battled cardiovascular disease.

Win a Nintendo Wii!! (find out how)

100% of the proceeds from the Heart of Summer 5K and 10K will stay in the community to support women's heart health initiatives. Last year, more than $25,000 was donated to area heart clinics, and this year we hope to help even more women become heart healthy.

Whether you are running in memory of a loved one, to celebrate a heart disease survivor, or just for fun and fitness, make every step count by raising money for one of the official Boston Scientific Heart of Summer 5K and 10K heart center beneficiaries.
