Building a Following

I have an obsession with Team Novo Nordisk, if you are a regular visitor to this site you know that all to well.  I fell in love with cycling because of Lance Armstrong, I became obsessed and have a greater love for cycling, running, and triathlons because of Team Novo Nordsik.  I see team founder Phil Southerland and all the members of the team doing amazing things.  I know that they will ride in the Tour de France in 2021 but they have bigger goals they want to change the way people look at diabetes and diabetic athletes.

This past week a Team Novo Nordisk post on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram caught my attention.  Above you see the hashtag #DiabetesEmpowered Team Novo Nordisk uses this hashtag whenever they are inspiring, educating or empowering people affected by diabetes.  All you have to do is use the hashtag #DiabetesEmpowered when you are working out or living to empower yourself or someone you know that is living with diabetes.  By using that hashtag you can win an all expense paid trip to Team Novo Nordisks 2015 training camp!!

That is definitely my dream and I believe I have used the hashtag #DiabetesEmpowered at least twenty times in the past five months when the campaign started.  My favorite picture is below, I love running but my diabetes always comes first, I can wait to wear the medal I need to check my blood sugar!!
