What is Coast 2 Coast?




What is Coast2Coast for Heart Health? It is a personal challenge and adventure that I am embarking upon.

The Adventure: It kicks off next summer, 2013, when I leave the Pacific Ocean at the Southwestern corner of the United States and cycle to Lubec, Maine in the extreme Northeast of the United States.  It'll take 50 days, with an average of 95 miles per day.  I'll be going though the deserts of the Southwest, the Great Plains, the Great Lakes, through the Appalachians and on to New York and into the Northeast.  IT WILL BE AN ADVENTURE.

The Challege: To raise money for heart health education and research through the American Heart Association and to raise awareness of heart health to the public through the media before, during and after the adventure.  I'm planning on using local radio and tv, with the hopes of capturing national attention along the way.
