Episode Description: Heartbeat Ultra - Raising Funds for Children with Heart Conditions

Welcome to another episode of the Run Cook, Eat Repeat podcast! In this episode, Markus sits down with Jenny Romanowski, the organizer of the Heartbeat Ultra, a charity race aimed at raising funds for children with heart conditions. Jenny's personal experience with her son, Thore, who was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, has inspired her to create awareness and support for children facing similar challenges.

Jenny opens up about the everyday struggles her family faces, including the need for oxygen and access to medical care. She highlights the importance of organizations like Fontan Hearts, which collect valuable information to help children with heart conditions.
