Diabetes walk on November 16

With less than a week before an annual walk in aid of Diabetes, Walk 2012, more than 14,000 tickets have already been issued. And organisers have said they are hoping for more than 17,000 participants on the actual day. Issued tickets had come from more than 5,500 registrations online and 9,000 tickets secured by different organisations in the private and public sectors. To be held on November 16 at the Yas Marina Circuit, two days after the World Diabetes Day, Walk 2012 aims at promoting a healthy lifestyle by adopting the smart, simple steps of a balanced diet and regular exercise, such as a 30-minute brisk walk each day.
