Wear RED and be active from coast to coast to COAST!

JOIN US! We are welcoming anyone and everyone who would like to get active and raise awareness for women’s heart and vascular health.

When: Between February 13 and 28, 2026

What: Choose your favorite physical activity and support women's heart and vascular health!

• Choose an event*: 5 km, 10 km, 30 minutes of movement, 60 minutes of movement

Where: Anywhere you like! Whether it’s outdoors, indoors, at the gym, in the pool, or in your living room - every step or stretch counts!

Choose your physical activity: Find what feels best for you. Some ideas include: running, walking, hiking, snowshoeing, skiing, yoga, or even dancing! Tip: You don’t have to complete it all at once. Track your progress and work toward a cumulative distance or time over the challenge period.

*You only need to complete the event you registered for ONCE during the February 13–28 challenge period (whether it’s 5km, 10km, 30 mins, or 60 mins). If you’d like to complete it more than once, you’re more than welcome to!

Globally, cardiovascular diseases affect 1 out of 3 women, yet women everywhere are Under-studied, Under-diagnosed, Under-treated, and Under-aware. Learn more about women’s heart and vascular health and begin taking simple, meaningful steps toward a healthier heart with the right information at your fingertips.
