Whether you're training for a marathon, triathlon, or looking to increase stamina, endurance training plays a crucial role.
Farmingdale, NY - On October 5, 2009 Dominic Murray, a seemingly healthy 17 year‐old, collapsed on the basketball court at Farmingdale State College during an open gym pick‐up game.
Within minutes following his collapse Dominic started gasping, gurgling, and experienced seizure‐like motions. Dominic was unresponsive. He had no pulse. All signs of a sudden cardiac arrest. Dominic’s symptoms went unrecognized by all around him.
On that night, Dominic embraced his first love, basketball, for the last time. His college experience lasted a mere seven weeks.
The Dominic A. Murray 21 Memorial Foundation trains the public in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the use of automated external defibrillators (AED), implementing Public Access Defibrillation (PAD) programs, and working to modify legislation related to AED laws and the pre-participation screening of student-athletes.
Last week they hosted their 15th Anniversary Red Gala. Please consider visiting their website and donating to their cause to help prevent other families from losing their child due to a lack of awareness, screening and immediate treatment.
