Rain didn’t stop participants as they ventured through multiple checkpoints throughout the community for the American Heart Association’s HeartChase event on Sunday, November 20. Teams competed against one another, gaining points as they uncovered clues, solved puzzles and completed in challenges.
Throughout the course of the race, participants used their smart phones to capture QR codes to gain more points. It was an all out race to the finish line. Team Pulse took home the gold, coming in first place. Money raised at HeartChase will benefit the American Heart Association and their mission to fund research, treat and prevent cardiovascular disease, improving patient care and educating the public about heart disease and stroke risks.
