The Central Ohio Diabetes Association would like to thank all those who participated in making this first time event a success.   

Those individuals took a leisurely one mile stroll or walked or ran in the 5k event to benefit the Central Ohio Diabetes Association. Teams and individuals were encouraged to participate.   The race route at Genoa Park provided a great view of the City and participants had a chance to run along the Bank of the Scioto River.  

A Big Thank You also goes out to those who contributed funds to the cause and to the number of volunteers who made the entire event possible.

 
After the event, participants replenished with breakfast from Chris Cakes, “The Pancake Man” and kids enjoyed the Bounce House and face painting.   

Don't forget you can still contribute to the cause by going to  www.CODAwalks.org or for more information call 614-884-4400.

THE CENTRAL OHIO DIABETES ASSOCIATION

The Central Ohio Diabetes Association helps Central Ohioans living with diabetes detect their condition, prevent onset and complications, and learn to live well with the challenge of diabetes.

Founded by a group of local physicians, the Central Ohio Diabetes Association has provided service to the Central Ohio community for forty-five years. The agency is not affiliated with a national organization. It is a local, private agency with a direct service focus serving Franklin County and 10 outlying counties. (more..)
Did you know?
Diabetes now affects nearly 24 million people in the United States, an increase of more than 3 million in approximately two years. Data estimates released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) projects that nearly 8 percent of the U.S. population has diabetes.
Ohio ranks eighth in the number of people diagnosed with diabetes with an estimated 830,000 adult Ohioans having the disease. This is an estimate of 9.7% Ohioans.
Diabetes is rapidly becoming one of the world's most common diseases and its financial cost is mounting, too, to well over $200 billion a year in the U.S. alone.
The U.S. Government spends only $1 for diabetes research compared to every $7 spent on AIDS and breast cancer, even though diabetes afflicts more Americans (16 million) and costs more money ($91 billion a year in direct costs) than both AIDS and breast cancer combined (3.35 million/$16.9 billion).
