Practising what they preach: Coast Cardiology at
The Ironman Australia weekend in Port Macquarie is over and once again Coast Cardiology were on the start line.
Kristian and Melinda have both done this event, or the 70.3, several times over the years (swimming, riding, and running the same course as thousands of others, all chasing the same finish line).
We support the event because it stands for something we believe in every day in the clinic: that staying active is one of the best things you can do for your heart. There's no lecture in it — just the same advice we'd give any patient, lived out on the course in our own town.
Port Macquarie is quite the place to stage this race and we're absolutely chuffed to be part of it. To the volunteers, the organisers, the families down on the sidelines and every single athlete who put in the work over a cold winter to get to one day in October — thank you.
Whether you're after a personal best or simply want to move a bit more than you did last month, look after your heart.
