Any Men with Coronary Heart Disease out there?

Am trying to convince my husband to push himself a bit more to exercise. He had some angina a bit over a year ago and has improved quite a bit on medications. He used to not be able to walk to put the trash out without chest pain but now we are going for walks around the block (1.3 miles), some light bike riding, and he played laser tag a bit ago (although he pushed himself a bit too hard and had some mild angina with that).
I would like him to bike while I jog (my running is about a 11-12 minute mile) especially on my longer runs, or even try jogging one lap around the block with me (he is 6'4" so he could likely even just pick up his walking pace a bit to keep up).
Anybody out there had angina/cad and turned around, exercised and now running regularly?
