5K SCADaddle for Research

This event has been cancelled.

Our Cause

Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) is a little known and poorly understood type of heart attack. Most patients are younger healthy women who do not have the typical risk factors of heart disease. Although less common, it can affect men too. SCAD can recur and can be fatal. Research is needed to identify the cause(s) and the best treatment options.

SCAD is the #1 cause of heart attacks in women under age 50, pregnant women & new moms.

SCADaddle

Join us and SCADaddle through Patterson Farm! Our timed 5K Run/Walk takes place at Patterson Farm Market & Tours in Mount Ulla, NC, approx. 35 miles NE of Charlotte. Enjoy running/walking on a dirt/grass trail around farm fields in production.
