Colon Terrell Sweeps Through Raleigh This Morning
Today heart attack survivor Colon Terrell will continue his 3000-mile nationwide walk in Raleigh. The walk intends to raise awareness of heart disease, America’s #1 killer. Here is more about his plans for today:
Plans call for us to start on the south side of the Capitol Building at 11:00AM. We can all make the heart sign with our hands (see photo of two of our granddaughters, Ashley and Olivia) to kick-off our walk. Here’s the planned path for the day:
- From the Capitol, south down Fayetteville Street.
- Right on Lenoir Street for one block.
- Right again (north) on Salisbury Street where we’ll stop briefly at the Convention Center and statue of Sir Walter Raleigh.
- Continue north on Salisbury Street to Hillsborough Street.
- Left on Hillsborough Street for as long as you want to walk with me.
More about this ambitious plan is at the terrellwalk website.
