This September, Diabetes Canada is rallying Canadians together to Lace Up to End Diabetes. A virtual 10K event – where you exercise, move, run, or ride your way!

It’s been 100 years since the discovery of insulin – the most notable Canadian medical breakthrough of the 20th century. However, insulin is not enough. It’s the starting line, not the finish line for diabetes.

Diabetes is successful at outrunning us all. Even after 100 years of insulin, the problem of diabetes is bigger than ever. Today, one in three Canadians has diabetes or at risk of diabetes, and young people face a greater than 50% chance of developing diabetes in their lifetime.

SPONSOR MY DIABETES CANADA

This year I’m leading a Lace Up to End Diabetes team (Denis the Menace) to help bring Canadians across the country together in a movement—Lace up to End Diabetes!

We invite you to do your your way!

You choose the activity and you set the pace. Walk, run, ride or dance your kilometres, whether it’s in two hours, two days or two weeks.: a virtual 10k but done in your own way! You choose the activity and you set the pace. Walk, run, ride or dance your kilometers in, whether it’s in two hours, two days or two weeks.

A Little About Us
I am married to a wonderful man who has T2 diabetes on insulin. My husband, Denis, has had diabetes for over 25 years. Although many people see chronic illness as a shadow that looms over them, I am reminded that living with diabetes or any chronic disease does not dictate what these wonderful human beings can accomplish. If anything, I want to show my husband that his children, Jolianne and Tristan, and I are with him every day. And that is why we are participating in Lace Up to End Diabetes: a virtual 10k in my own way!

WHAT IS THE LACE UP 10k?
hy not sponsor Diabetes Canada or better yet – join my team!

We invite you to do your your way! LaceUp 10K is a virtual event by Diabetes Canada where you choose the activity and you set the pace. Walk, run, ride or dance your 10 kilometres, whether it’s in two hours, two days or two weeks, during the month of September.

Run
North Jersey Pride Run
Whether you’re more of an adrenaline ju**ie or a moving meditator, running is one of the quickest ways to clock your kilometres.

Ride

I am taking the 100k Challenge! I will move a total off 100 kilometers in the month of September.

WHY AM I LACING UP?
The funds and awareness we raise supports education, support services, advocacy and funding diabetes research that may just lead to the next big medical breakthrough.

Hello,

Every kilometre makes a difference.

This year I'm leading a Lace Up to End Diabetes, presented by GMS, team: a virtual 10k but done in your own way! You choose the activity and you set the pace. Walk, run, ride or dance your kilometers in, whether it’s in two hours, two days or two weeks.

As you may know, supporting those living and affected by diabetes is important to me because Denis Lavergne (Jolianne and Tristan's dad and Josée's husband) has diabetes. We want to lace up in order to help the research and show him that we support him and that we can do whatever we set our mind too. That is why we are lacing up, the challenge is to complete 10km by walking, running, dancing, working out, etc, during the month of spetember. In order to show your support you can join our team and-or donate. Personally, the three of us (Jolianne, Tristan and Josée) are challenging ourselves to complete 100km and show that we can surpass boundaries.

The discovery of insulin 100 years ago brought a miraculous change in life expectancy and quality of life for millions of people around the world.

However, insulin is not enough. It’s the starting line, not the finish line for diabetes. We can't wait another 100 years to end diabetes.

That’s why I'm calling on you to join our team! I wouldn’t be surprised if you know or someone you know is living with diabetes or prediabetes – 1 in 3 people in Canada are.

Every dollar raised helps support the millions of Canadians living with diabetes or prediabetes and helps continue the important work led by Diabetes Canada. Our fundraising will support education, support services, advocacy and funding diabetes research that may just lead to the next big medical breakthrough.

Bonjour,

Chaque kilomètre fait une différence.

Cette année, je dirige un Lace Up to End Diabetes, présenté par GMS, équipe : un 10k virtuel mais fait à ta manière ! Vous choisissez l'activité et vous définissez le rythme. Marchez, courez, roulez ou dansez vos kilomètres, que ce soit en deux heures, deux jours ou deux semaines.

Comme vous le savez peut-être, soutenir les personnes qui vivent et qui sont touchées par le diabète est important pour moi car Denis Lavergne (le père de Jolianne et Tristan et le mari de Josée) est diabétique. Nous voulons nous enfiler (lace up) pour aider la recherche et lui montrer que nous le soutenons et que nous pouvons aussi faire tout ce que nous voulons. C'est pourquoi nous chaussons, le défi est de parcourir 10km en marchant, en courant, en dansant, en s'entrainant, etc, pendant le mois de septembre. Afin de montrer votre soutien, vous pouvez rejoindre notre équipe et-ou faire un don. Personnellement, nous trois (Jolianne, Tristan et Josée) nous nous mettons au défi de parcourir 100 km et de montrer que nous pouvons surpasser les limites.

La découverte de l'insuline il y a 100 ans a apporté un changement miraculeux dans l'espérance de vie et la qualité de vie de millions de personnes dans le monde.

Cependant, l'insuline ne suffit pas. C'est la ligne de départ, pas la ligne d'arrivée pour le diabète. Nous ne pouvons pas attendre encore 100 ans pour mettre fin au diabète.

C'est pourquoi je vous invite à rejoindre notre équipe ! Je ne serais pas surpris si vous savez ou quelqu'un que vous connaissez vit avec le diabète ou le prédiabète - 1 personne sur 3 au Canada le sont.

Chaque dollar amassé aide à soutenir les millions de Canadiens vivant avec le diabète ou le prédiabète et aide à poursuivre l'important travail mené par Diabète Canada. Notre collecte de fonds soutiendra l'éducation, les services de soutien, le plaidoyer et le financement de la recherche sur le diabète qui pourrait bien conduire à la prochaine grande percée médicale.

Recherchez simplement notre équipe -- -- ou mon prénom et mon nom ici.
