After the success achieved last year, the organizers of the II race and walk for World Diabetes Day, scheduled for November 17 at the Paseo de Montejo auction, expect another similar response from the Yucatecans.

The objective will be to overcome the barrier of the thousand people registered, since with this they will help more diabetic children who need insulin and other medications."We have scholarships to 20 children and with the help of all we can scholarship many more," said Claudia Durán González, president of the Mexican Diabetes Federation.

Registration for the event will cost 120 pesos and those interested can do so in the races that will be organized soon and a week before at the Salvador Alvarado stadium, where they will receive their shirt and the number of participant.

The organizers announced that World Diabetes Day will be on November 14, date on which they will organize various events, such as illuminating important monuments and buildings in the city.- Hérbert O. Martínez Fuente
