20- American Heart Association Heart Walk

For a few years now, Medco has participated in the Tampa Bay Heart Walk for the American Heart Association. This year, I participated on a friend's team, and I really enjoyed the experience. It had to be one of the coldest mornings of the year, but the chill was no match for the 10 cups of coffee I had!
I arrived early to help set up our tent, and I ran the PLINKO game for those who wanted to play. We had great giveaways, and the kids enjoyed the balloons and our mascot "Lippy". (see pic below :)

We had the option of doing the 1 mile or 3 mile, so naturally I did the 3 mile. There were so many people, and you couldn't help but to engage others in conversation with that many smiles in abundance. What made me enjoy this day was that I felt surrounded by motivated people who came together for a great cause. If there is one thing I have been looking for in Tampa, it's like-minded people......those who care about others and the community. What a great way to be!


Overall, the event raised $1,758,535!!!!!!
