The 2017 Diabetes Run is next week in Belmopan.  The goal is to raise awareness of diabetes.  World Diabetes Day is on November 14th.

 

"Belize Diabetes Run is a momentous twenty-three (23) miles run that was created on May 24th 2015 to catapult an awareness about the dangers of Diabetes. Our dream is to contribute to the prevention and elimination of this deadly disease, which is a leading killer of Belizeans and people across the globe. Yet there are very little awareness of such disease, and the effect that are associated with diabetes, and all other forms of chronic non communicable disease namely: Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure and Cancer.

 

This year Our 23 Miles Diabetes Run will be held on Saturday November 4, 2017 in commemoration of World Diabetes Day Program of events 2017.  Aim of the event is to highlight the role of physical activity in prevention/reversal of Type 2 Diabetes."
