diaT1op turns 10 in 2025 - Come to the kick-off on 19 January 2025

In 2025 we are celebrating diaT1op's 10th anniversary! We are going to make it a spectacular edition.

Through walking, running and cycling, in 2025 we again want to make the most of their beneficial effects on the health of people with type 1 diabetes. As well as better physical fitness and better control of blood glucose and body weight, what we see above all is more knowledge and more self-confidence among the participants!

Exercising with diabetes does not affect everyone in the same way. Some people 'go up', others 'go down' after seemingly the same effort. By training together a lot (and talking about it), participants can learn a great deal from and with each other. Doctors, diabetes educators and coaches are always keen to hear about the experiences they can pick up by training alongside everyone.

This year too we want to pay attention to everyone with diabetes who wants to be active. And above all to people who still have to make a start, who 'want to but don't dare'.

As every year, we will put together an annual programme. For each of the disciplines we try to take the needs of the participants into account as far as possible.

We are also organising workshops on Sunday 30 March 2025, which deepen the theoretical understanding of exercising with type 1 diabetes.

In 2025 we will close the diaT1op year with a spectacular event. It will be a walking, running and cycling gathering at Alpe d'Huez, in the French Alps. Everyone will have the chance to tame this iconic mountain, known from the Tour de France, at their own pace. The Climbing for Life weekend is planned from Thursday 21 August to midday on Sunday 24 August 2025 (3 nights). At the kick-off you will find out all about it and you will also be able to reserve a room.
