Additional Information

Why Walk or Run with Dads on Fathers Day at Charities Challenge Fathers Day 5k - Celebration of Generations?
1. The #1 risk of premature death among men is heart disease.
2. Regular RxExercise is a proven, powerful protection against heart disease.
3. RxExercise is also a powerful therapy in the management of cardio-vascular diseases (CVD) for many at risk for the many challenges and complications of CVD.
4. But many busy Dads don’t make time for their own RxExercise and therefore experience more stress. And, unmanaged stress is highly related to heart disease and sudden death.
5. Yet regular RxExercise, a brisk walk or run, is also a proven, low-cost, irreplaceably effective stress management therapy. And, there is no cure for all the ills associated with lack of exercise!
6. RxExercise is more likely to be regularly filled by those individuals who have someone caring enough to help support their healthful exercises, like fitness walking or running, by active, participatory encouragement of walking or running alongside.
7. And, Dads who exercise are more likely to have children who exercise.
8. Therefore, Charities Challenge will lead in an Annual Celebration of Generations of Active-Fit Families led by healthfully active Dads and Moms on Fathers and Mothers Days. 9. The Charities Challenge Fathers Day 5k Celebration will include special recognition and awards to Dads who are making an RxExercise difference in their own lives as well as the lives of their happier-healthier families.
10. Come to Como Lake on Fathers Day to Celebrate Dads' RxExercise leadership to their families and our communities.
11. And, come to encourage all men to be happily-healthfully active, joining in fitness walking or running, thereby making the most immediate, and most lasting, contribution to men's health by celebrating, supporting and sharing in their RxExercise.
