A Suite Run Podcast special conversation: part one of Jerold's heart surgery journey. Jerold and Nat share it all - the highs AND the lowest of lows. What happens when a fit, healthy, athletic runner goes on a run and feels... drastically different? Heaviness in the chest, absolutely no energy and the sinking feeling of not being able to GO at all. Little did we know that it would lead to a summer of a life saving discovery. We are honored and thankful that Jerold is here to share the experience - in his own words. We hope our story will help to save others.
