Go Red Challengers Take Centerstage
Meet Our Challengers
These 12 women have been on an exciting 16-week journey to shape up their heart health. You've followed their progress through our Facebook page, through their blogs, and through our media partners at Results Radio and KELO TV, but now see the final result. Through one-on-one nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and overall well-being consultations, our partners at Sanford Health have "made over" these ladies' heart health and put them on the path to a "Better U." At the luncheon we'll celebrate their success and share their secrets for ways you can live the Go Red For Women Movement in your life to create a Better You!
Our Survivor
Teri Schmidt
She's one of Sioux Falls' most recognizable faces...known for helping to promote the City of Sioux Falls throughout the country to visitors through her role as the Executive Director of the Sioux Falls Convention and Visitors Bureaus. But she's also making it her mission to promote heart health by telling her story as a survivor. Teri Schmidt was just days away from a
heart attack when she decided to get the pressure in her chest and pain in her neck checked by a doctor. With one of her major coronary arteries more than 99 percent blocked, she counts herself lucky to be alive. She'll share her story and talk about why she encourages everyone to get their hearts checked.
