Take Your First Step
Register today and start raising funds to fight heart disease and stroke.

Join us for a fundraising celebration!  The 2009 Start! Philadelphia Heart Walk is a non-competitive 3-mile walk (with an option to walk 1.5 miles) to raise awareness and raise funds to support the American Heart Association's mission to build healthier lives free of cardiovascular disease and stroke.  We expect more than 5,000 people to attend this year's event. 

Visit the three communities Create Hope, Inspire Change and Celebrate Success at the Walk and participate in fun activities for all ages.  Activities include blood pressure screenings, fitness demonstrations, nutritional information, snacks and kids' activities. 

We will be celebrating survivors, remembering lost loved ones, and recognizing those who have made lifestyle changes to live longer, healthier lives. 

Register online to participate.
