Annie Smith has kicked off her fifth annual Annie’s Pace Global Adventure to raise heart health awareness in a four-day Walk-a-Thon and Spin-a-Thon at the All the Right Moves Fitness Studio in Omemee.
Smith encourages anyone to join in on her for as long as they want as she’ll walk 80-120 km on a treadmill during the four-day span from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. A barbecue fundraiser is also being held on Sunday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Her campaign encourages others to post their heart stories and/or weekend activities on Smith’s Facebook or Instagram page while tagging themselves during the event.
