Discovery Vitality is proud to announce the launch of a brand new venture in partnership with four of Johannesburg’s most established running clubs – the Discovery Vitality Run Series. Designed to help people improve their health through physical activity, the Discovery Vitality Run Series connects four iconic running events in the city of Johannesburg.
The Planetary Health report, released by Discovery in Johannesburg and simultaneously in Manila, New York and London on 16 July, provides the first comprehensive evidence showing how unprecedented environmental degradation is jeopardising the health of future generations.
The Vitality Fittest City Index, powered by Discovery and University of Cape Town, aims to determine how each of South Africa's six major metropolitan areas – Johannesburg, Ekhurhuleni (East Rand), Tshwane (Pretoria), Cape Town, eThekweni (Durban) and Nelson Mandela Bay (Port Elizabeth) – ranked in physical activity-related health and infrastructure that promotes physical activity.
