In this episode of “The Heart Attack Thriver Podcast”  I’m in conversation with John Tolkamp who I met when he was the President of Cycling Canada in Toronto.   

John and I re-connected a few months ago when I saw a social media post where he shared that he was experiencing some heart issues.  Like me, John is an avid cyclist and was good friends with Kris Yip who was the focus of my last episode when I was in conversation with Kris’s sister Kim Brochu.
