Dear Friends and Family & Supporters of Annie's Pace Global Adventure!
Welcome to the 8th Annual Annie's Pace Global Adventure (APGA)!! This year’s adventure takes place from May 22–25, 2026!
As many of you know, I have been a fitness professional for over 31 years. Eleven years ago (at age 48), I was diagnosed with Cardiac Sarcoidosis, a rare and incurable heart disease.
Since then, I have undergone multiple surgeries, most recently receiving my third device, a CRT-D, in June 2025 to manage worsening heart failure.
While recent results show that the device has not increased my heart's pumping efficiency, I am now following a steady heart failure medication protocol.
This is why APGA is so very important to me!
APGA is a four-day, all-abilities event held every May to unite people globally for heart health awareness. The goal is to exercise for one hour each day, or to join me in testing your limits by exercising for as long as you can.
You can watch a 90-second video about our mission here:

I am forever grateful for your support and encouragement over the last eight years.
Thank you for choosing courage and joining me on this journey!
Smiles & Sunshine,
Annie
