that promote health and fitness as well as address health issues like diabetes, obesity, nutrition, smoking, and
many more. By joining these events, you can learn more about these health concerns, what is being done to
handle them—and at the same time, you also get to increase your physical activity. The usual objective of
the organizers of these events is to raise funds for awareness about these health issues. Depending on their
advocacy, events may range from fun-filled activities that can engage entire families, to more physically
demanding ones. Participation in these events not only increases your activity but also gives you an
advocacy to work on. Your choice would depend on your interests and preferences. Here are some viable
options for you.
Fun runs
These are usually 1-day events that focus on running various
distances (i.e., 3k, 5k, 10k, or longer). They cater to a wide
variety of participants—competitive or recreational runners, and
even families. Whether you are a recreational or competitive
runner, fun runs are good ways to elevate participation in
physical activities since some fun runs are held in different
surfaces (e.g., concrete, off-road, beach) and with different
challenges posed on runners like an uphill run.
