Help Me Raise Funds for Stroke and Heart Disease!

I’m so excited to run this race for Tedy’s Team. As most people know this is a cause near and dear to my heart. I have loved my time running for Tedy’s Team because it has given me a chance to run in honor of my grandfather and to give to a great charity. Thank you for your donation.

The mission of Tedy's Team is to raise awareness for stroke and heart disease while supporting survivors on their journey, giving them a means for a comeback!

Tedy's Team was originally founded in 2005, when Tedy Bruschi, former linebacker for the New England Patriots suffered a stroke shortly after winning his 3rd Super Bowl and just days after returning from his first Pro Bowl. to learn more about who we are, please see our website, www.tedysteam.org.

The warning signs of stroke, which are best remembered by using the acronym BE FAST, are:

  Balance Difficulties

  Eyesight Changes

  Face Drooping

  Arm Weakness

  Speech Difficulties - and if you notice any of those warning signs, it's...

  TIME TO CALL 9-1-1.

BE FAST is an acronym to help you quickly recognize common signs of a stroke and to take any necessary action by calling for emergency medical services. Other symptoms may include sudden and severe unexplained headache or migraine with no obvious cause, and confusion or trouble understanding things they would normally know.

Please also note the warning signs of heart attack are:

     • Chest pain and discomfort

     • Lightheadedness, nausea or vomiting

     • Jaw, neck of back pain

     • Discomfort or pain in the arm or shoulder
