————————————————

The 2024 Juneteenth 5K CommUnity Walk/Run at Rowlett Park was a First-of-it’s-Kind event that brought our community together in support of health and solidarity. Participants engaged in various physical activities including walking, running, DanceHall Fit, yoga, and line dancing while also connecting with healthcare providers to learn about managing and preventing type 2 diabetes.


The event's impact was evident through the compelling stories shared by individuals such as Tatiana from Suncoast Credit Union, Members of BMR Tampa, Lyric of BGR Tampa, and Team Mates representing Hearts of Valor. These stories highlight the spirit of our community and emphasize the importance of our collective efforts to combat diabetes.


We are committed to continuing the journey of promoting health and unity. We encourage you to share your experiences and initiatives for how you're "Outrunning Diabetes" with us. Stay connected with us on social media for updates on our upcoming signature event, Dash4Diabetes, and be among the first to register when event registration launches on July 15.
