Dash for Diabetes

Coplin Health Systems’ annual Dash for Diabetes event has been rescheduled for Saturday, Sept. 12 at Washington’s Riverfront Park in Ravenswood, with strict safety measures in place for participants.

The fourth annual Dash for Diabetes event was originally scheduled for April 4, however, was cancelled due to the rapid spread of COVID-19. Now with the new date set up, this year’s event will look different from previous years as CHS and organizers work tirelessly to protect walkers and runners.

This year, the start will be done in waves to limit the number of participants gathering at one time. To do this, organizers will ask each participant an estimated finishing time, and then assign following participants a start time.
