Open Heart Runner

Greg Marchand was a lean, athletic and experienced runner in 1999, when he collapsed, mid-race, in severe cardiac arrest. Another runner, a doctor, performed CPR on him for 20 minutes until paramedics arrived, nobody expected Greg to survive, but he did. Guest host Chris dela Torre talks to him about his experience.

 

Greg Marchand will launch his new book, Open Heart Runner, Wednesday July 11, at 7pm, at The Clubhouse at Indian Bluffs, 2200 Patterson View S.W.
