NOVEMBER IS NATIONAL DIABETES MONTH
Two Cities. One Mission.
Outrun Diabetes.
Jacksonville and Tampa are moving together to
raise awareness, inspire healthier choices, and help
prevent type 2 diabetes—one step at a time
SMART HEALTH INITIATIVES PRESENTS
More Than a Race. A Movement for Health.
For too many families, type 2 diabetes is personal. Dash4Diabetes turns awareness into action by bringing communities together around one of the most powerful tools for prevention: movement.
Across Jacksonville and Tampa, runners, walkers, families, healthcare partners, and community organizations will move side by side, connect with trusted health resources, and take meaningful steps toward healthier lives.
You don’t have to be a runner. You simply have to be ready to move.
TWO CITIES. ONE MOVEMENT.
