Calling all Heart&Stroke Walkabout™ members, Heart&Stroke Walkabout™ is walking places at the 2011 Bluenose Marathon, May 20-22, 2011
You can participate in one of two easy ways:
1) Enjoy a fun walk and raise awareness of Heart&Stroke Walkabout™. Our vision is a revitalized culture of walking in Nova Scotia by putting feet back on the streets and walking back in the hearts and minds of Nova Scotians.
You can participate in a group walk (5km, 10km, ½ marathon or even full marathon). Walkabout Thunder Stix will be available for walkers and spectators to cheer on the participants. Please find more information about the Bluenose Marathon at http://www.bluenosemarathon.com/en/

Each participant who raises at least $50 for HSFNS will be provided with a Walkabout t-shirt. Join our team and make a difference! Put your heart (and feet!) into it on Sunday, May 22nd, 2011 as part of our third annual team in the Scotiabank Group Blue Nose Charity Challenge! Help make a difference in the fight against heart disease and stroke by supporting the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Nova Scotia’s team!
