This short video
is a basic overview of what Summit4CAD is
and why it was founded - hosted by
Summit4CAD's founder, Jon Patrick Hyde.
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the leading cause of
death world-wide and causes 1 in 4 deaths in the
USA each year.
Thousands of people each year
learn that they have CAD after experiencing
a heart attack that is "out of the blue" and
unexpected.
Summit4CAD's
Mission is:
"The
prevention of Coronary Artery Disease
through the promotion of healthy lifestyle
choices centered around the fitness activity
of cycling."
AN INTERVIEW WITH JON PATRICK HYDE -
FOUNDER OF SUMMIT4CAD
Summit4CAD was founded
by Jon Patrick Hyde after his experience with
undiagnosed and untreated Coronary Artery Disease
(CAD).
On October 14th of 2016 Jon suffered a "widowmaker"
heart attack and survived. 90% of widowmaker
sufferers do not survive. The remaining 10%
typically do so with some form of permanent heart
damage which leaves them disabled with a poor
prognosis for life longevity.
Jon did
not only survive his widowmaker but he did so
with zero residual heart damage; which is so rare
that there are no statistics to express how often it
occurs.
Through years of intense daily cycling his heart had grown "Collateral
Arteries" which kept his heart
muscle alive until he could be treated. These
"remodeled branches" were a direct result of his
daily exercise regimen.

announcing Eagle's sponsorship Jon said,
"I'm
honored to have been chosen to represent
Eagle and the great people who work there.
In searching for a bicycle partner for
Summit4CAD I wanted a company that does more
than design and build great bikes; I wanted
a company that sincerely cares about
cyclists. Eagle was my first choice and I
couldn't be more thrilled to ride their
bikes as I fulfill Summit4CAD's Mission."
