About
The D2M Charity RUN

In a world where diabetes is rapidly becoming the fastest growing chronic disease, it is essential to acknowledge the pressing need for change. Here in Singapore, the statistics are alarming: One in three citizens faces a lifetime risk of developing diabetes, and shockingly, 50.4% of individuals in  Singapore living with diabetes went undiagnosed as of 2021 according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). As we project the potential of having one million people with diabetes by 2050, it is evident that we need to take action to alter this course.

 

The D2M (Designed to Move) Charity Run emerges as a powerful symbol of hope and unity, signifying our collective determination to make a difference. It represents a profound belief in our capacity to pave a path towards better health management and lifestyle habits for all Singaporeans. With our inaugural run successfully held in 2021, we embark on our third annual run with even greater resolve and purpose.

 

At the heart of the D2M Charity Run lies Diabetes 2 Mellitus, the most prevalent form of diabetes. This condition not only brings about cardiovascular diseases but also gives rise to complications that can significantly impact various bodily functions. The question arises: As we live longer, are we truly living a life of quality and vitality? The answer lies in the choices we make daily.

 

Emphasising the pivotal role of a healthy diet and regular exercise, we affirm that our bodies are indeed designed to move. Whether you are an athletic runner, a jogging enthusiast, or a casual walker, this event welcomes everyone to participate and contribute to a worthy cause. Each step you take is not merely a physical endeavour; it becomes a testament to your commitment to embrace a healthier lifestyle while supporting a charitable initiative.

 

By joining the D2M Charity Run, you become a catalyst for change, a beacon of hope in the face of a growing health crisis. Your participation transcends the confines of a charity run; it embodies a philosophical journey of self-awareness and communal responsibility. Together, we can alter the trajectory of diabetes in Singapore, fostering a future where health and happiness intertwine.

 

Let your footsteps echo with purpose, your strides resonate with meaning, and your presence ignite the spark of transformation. Join us in this significant event, as we propel ourselves towards a brighter, healthier, and more fulfilling tomorrow. The time is now, and power is in unity. Together, we will redefine what it means to live a life of vitality - a life that truly moves with purpose.
