Challenge Information
Novo Nordisk is committed to driving change to defeating diabetes and other serious chronic diseases such as obesity and rare blood and endocrine disorders. Rates of Type 2 diabetes are rising in most countries and that's why Novo Nordisk wants to encourage healthy habits. This Kids Activity Challenge will encourage you to get up, get active AND have fun! Anyone under the age of 12 is invited to participate.
To complete the challenge, log at least 30 minutes of physical activity at least 12 times in ANY 2 week period before August 30. That means you have 2 weeks to complete at least 360 total minutes of activity (6 hours)! You can get moving however you like; some ideas might be walking or running around your neighborhood, riding your bike, or doing some jumping jacks. We encourage you to do at least 1 long run a week in the spirit of the Delaware marathon.
Make sure to keep track of your activity each day. Once you're done, submit your total activity time to get a finisher's certificate. You will have the option to receive a Kids Fun Run medal if you chose! For a small fee that covers the shipping & handling, your child can get the medal pictured.
