From the Organizer
Join us for the 5K@ADA Virtual Challenge anytime during June 12 - 14, 2020! The 5K@ADA Virtual Challenge brings together people across the globe and ADA attendees to emphasize the need for increased physical activity to help prevent diabetes and diabetes complications. This disease awareness activity provides participants with the opportunity to raise public awareness about the importance of a healthy lifestyle in preventing and controlling diabetes.
In 2020, the American Diabetes Association celebrates the 15th anniversary of Novo Nordisk’s partnership in supporting the 5K@ADA. To continue to raise diabetes awareness, this year we are making the transition from running and walking through the streets of Chicago to running and walking in your home city.
Please join us as we celebrate this milestone.
