The IN-fluence 500 Challenge: Lap 2 – Driver Conditioning

Thank you to everyone who participated in Lap 1 of the IN-fluence 500 challenge. If you didn’t, don’t worry; it’s not too late!

Lap 2 begins now, and it’s all about YOU! Just as the best drivers know their car inside and out, effective advocates understand their own health story. In this lap, you’ll learn how everyday choices, health habits, and risk factors can either help accelerate your health journey or create obstacles along the way. By understanding the factors that influence cardiovascular health and taking a closer look at your own wellness dashboard, you’ll be better equipped to make heart-healthy choices.

Lap 2 runs from October 8th to October 14th.

Here are the steps for Lap 2:

1. Check your score for Life’s Essential 8 with the My Life Check.
2. Ask us a question about advocacy at the American Heart Association – anything you can think of!
3. Complete a physical exercise of your choosing.
4. BONUS: Cook a healthy recipe from the Association’s recipe collection.
