The YMCA and Emplify Health by Gundersen are promoting a heart healthy lifestyle with the 3rd annual Heart Walk and Wellness Expo on Saturday morning in Onalaska.

It runs from 8 to 11 am at the Houser Family YMCA.

No registration is required. It's free and open to the public-you don't have to be a member of the YMCA to participate. 

The walk is on the Y's indoor track.
