Celebrating Our Momentum: Dash4Diabetes Launches Today!

The energy is electric, and the anticipation is palpable as we officially launch the Dash4Diabetes 5K and 10K Walk/Run today! Building on the remarkable success of the Juneteenth 5K CommUnity Walk/Run, we are thrilled to invite you to our signature event of the year, set to take place on Saturday, November 30 at Al Lopez Park.

Our Goals: More Than Just a Race

More than a race Dash4Diabetes is a movement. With each step we take together, we aim to:

❏ Raise Critical Funds: Proceeds from the event will directly support Sensible Health Initiatives’ vital programs, such as Fit Futures, which is dedicated to instilling healthy habits in our youth.

❒ Fuel Community Health Initiatives: Your participation helps us expand our reach and enhance programs that make a significant impact in our community.

The Urgency of Our Mission

The statistics are more than just numbers; they represent our friends, family, and neighbors:

❏ In Florida, nearly 12% of adults are living with diabetes, with Tampa and Hillsborough County reflecting similar trends.

❒ This prevalence underscores the critical need for community-engaged health initiatives and lifestyle education efforts aimed at preventing and managing Type 2 diabetes.

Why Your Participation Matters

By joining Dash4Diabetes, you're stepping up to make a difference. Here’s how you can get involved:

❒ Register Early: Take advantage of the Dash Saver Deals—the lowest prices available for the event.

❏ Fundraise for the Cause: Consider becoming a Blue Circle Runner. By raising a minimum of $250, not only will you make a more significant impact, but your race registration fee will be refunded after the event. Every dollar raised goes directly into programs that combat diabetes and promote health in our community.

❒ Spread the Word: Share your commitment on social media, invite friends and family, and encourage organizations to get involved. The more participants we have, the bigger impact we can make!
