PARTICIPATE IN
THE EVERYDAY RACE
By
Novo Nordisk North West Europe A/S
Please be patient with the numbers. There are many kilometers to be counted! The point of the Hverdagsracet is to show how big a difference the good habit makes. Of course, the figure only covers the reported kilometers driven by the participants.
It is an old adage that leaders should "lead the way". Regardless of the truth in this, we would like to highlight the managers who, despite busyness and high income, still prefer healthy and green transport.
Everyone talks about the world our children should grow up in. This is measured, among other things, on CO2 emissions. The small habit of cycling every day instead of driving actually makes a big difference. Not on an individual level, but when there are many of us, it suddenly becomes important. And there are quite a few of us.

The everyday race's calculations and data have been devised with the help of sparring partner The Footprint Firm (very recommendable to anyone looking for world-class sustainable minds)

The average number of active participants per week.
(Number of registrations divided by current week no.)
The purpose of the everyday race
The everyday race's purpose is to promote the effects of cycling on a continuous basis, and by the aid of real people's actual impact.
It is important, because fewer and fewer ride. All the while the problems that everyday cycling alleviates seem to pile up everywhere.
And you get the chance to beat Cykelven!
