OUR CAUSE
Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) is a little known and poorly understood cause of a heart attack. Most patients are young, healthy and active 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 for our 1st annual Texas SCADaddle to raise money for much-needed SCAD research. Our run/walk takes place in Wolfe Pen Creek Park, a family & dog friendly location. The race/walk will be a 3.1 mile loop around the park. We encourage participants to go at their own pace.
