Join the SCA Foundation Team at the Pittsburgh Marathon on May 2nd

PITTSBURGH,
PA--The
Sudden Cardiac Arrest Foundation will be participating as an
Affiliate Charity Partner at this year's DIck's Sporting Goods
Pittsburgh Marathon--the nation's third largest marathon--on May 2.

Runners
who join our team--and their personal motivation to raise awareness
about sudden cardiac arrest -- will be acknowledged on our website,
with permission.  If you would like to run in in memory of a loved one
lost to sudden cardiac arrest, or to honor the heroes who saved your
loved one's life, this could be the race of a lifetime. We welcome your testimonials
and photos.

Help us raise awareness about the leading cause of death in
America--a condition that affects more people each year than AIDS,
Alzheimers disease, assault with firearms, breast cancer, colon cancer,
prostate cancer, fires, motor vehicle accidents and suicide combined.

and relay team. The registration deadline is April 1.
