On May 5th, 2018, RunBet, in partnership with Action for Healthy Kids, is hosting a fun 1-day virtual 5K. All of the $20 participation fee will be donated to Action for Healthy Kids. To participate in the race, simply visit runbet.me/runforhealthykids. If you cannot join the race but would like to support a runner, please consider making a donation today. Action for Healthy Kids envisions a future where every kid is healthy, active and ready to learn. We mobilize school professionals, families and communities across the U.S. to take actions that lead to healthy eating, increased physical activity and healthier schools where kids thrive. Yet, one in three kids is overweight or obese, and schools lack the resources and support necessary to implement changes that can positively impact not only health outcomes for students but also their readiness to learn and succeed in school and beyond. If this trend continues, this generation will be the first in our history to live shorter lives than their parents. However, the solution to this national epidemic is within reach. Parents, grandparents, educators and concerned citizens everywhere can all play a part in instilling in kids the lifelong habits they need for health and learning.
