Insulindependence offers an annual series of race weekends. Each destination features a spotlight activity, including half marathons, marathons, triathlons, and relay events. For the purpose of education and community-building, race weekends offer supplemental opportunities to network and learn more about diabetes health and management. Fundraising efforts support community fitness programs in twenty-one U.S. cities, where IN reaches thousands of youths and adults living with diabetes. Out of the 10,000 runners and walkers, Insulindependence had 78 fundraising runners, the youngest being 13 with the oldest 68. Through their efforts they raised $45,638!
