Christopher’s 5-k Run & Walk For Diabetes is in honor of a young boy who has Type 1 Diabetes. Christopher, who is now 7, was diagnosed with diabetes months after turning 2 years old. Upon diagnosis, his family, and his family’s running club, were determined to make a difference.

Christopher’s father Frank Nelson and mother Ilda Nelson, started the road race in 2003 and teamed up with Team Diabetes and the Colonial Road Runners, to help raise money for diabetes and to support the entire mission of the American Diabetes Association: To prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.

To date, this event has raised nearly $60,000 in our efforts to help all those affected by diabetes.

We are hoping for an even greater success this year. Please be a part of this community event and help support a great cause.
