Novo Nordisk Kids Challenge

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 thats why Novo Nordisk wants to encourage healthy habits - especially from a young age! The Novo Nordisk Kids Challenge encourages kids to get up and get active during this time, especially when they might not be able to attend their normal activities.

This program is FREE! Everyone who submits their activity times online will get a printable completion certificate. During registration, you'll also have the option to get a Kids Fun Run medal if you just cover shipping and handling!

To complete the challenge, log at least 30 minutes of physical activity at least 12 times during ANY 2 week period of July or August. That's two weeks to complete the challenge with at least 6 hours of activity! You can get moving however you like; some ideas might be walking or running around your neighborhood, riding your bike, doing some jumping jacks. In the spirit of the Delaware Marathon, we encourage you to complete at least 1 run a week!

Make sure to keep track of your activity. The website and confirmation email includes a printout that will help you to log your activities. Once you're done, submit your total activity time to claim finisher's certificate and medal.
