ABOUT CRISTIAN
Cristian’s Big Heart 5k celebrates the life of Cristian Acosta-Flores who passed away on September 1, 2014, one day shy of his 19th birthday. Cristian’s life was cut tragically short due to complications from an undiagnosed enlarged heart.
The name “Cristian’s Big Heart 5k” sheds light on this important health issue but also reminds his friends and family of the way Cristian loved and lived. His Big Heart always lent a hand, encouraged others, and cared deeply for those around him. And when you ask people how they remember Cristian they will say:
“We remember Cristian for always giving and making people laugh.”
Each year we continue Cristian’s legacy and raise funds for “SCREEN YOUR TEEN” a local heart screening program for teenagers in San Diego run by the Eric Paredes Save A Life Foundation. In our first 4 years we have have donated $105,000 which is the equivalent of 5,250 FREE heart screenings for local teens!
