5K@ADA Virtual Challenge 2021

In 2020, the 5K@ADA had over 4,100 finishers from 89 countries. For 2021 we are aiming for finishers from 100+ countries to celebrate the 100^th anniversary of the discovery of insulin.

The 5K@ADA Virtual Challenge brings together people across the globe and American Diabetes Association 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.
