The Heart Attack Thriver Interview with Kim BrochuWe want to share an important conversation featuring Kim Brochu, Kris’s sister, who continues to lead powerful advocacy work in Kris’s memory. In November, Kim sat down with Brian Simpson on the Heart Attack Thriver Podcast to talk openly about Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), the risks facing Masters athletes, and the often-overlooked dangers of training alone on indoor trainers. Kim speaks candidly about losing Kris in January 2023 after a sudden cardiac event, and how that loss led to the creation of the Kris Yip Memorial Foundation and the Kris Yip Memorial Fondo - both dedicated to honouring Kris’s legacy through awareness, education, and community. This conversation reflects the heart of why this work matters: helping athletes recognize risk, encouraging proactive heart health, and reminding us that riding strong also means riding informed. If you haven’t listened yet, we encourage you to take the time. |
