Urban Swaras Starting Line @ Charity Run for LifeBloom at Berra Hotel, Ngong

Dear Swaras, 

We had a great run in the Mua Hills, Machakos. If you like your runs cool and cloudy, this was perfect running weather, and once again, for the second time in a month, some wildlife was spotted (real wildlife)!! We also had Swaras at Lewa and at the Old Moses Classic Run, with the Nyeri Blazers. Wherever you were, I hope you ran and lived to the fullest, because as our slogan says, running is living!

This week’s run – Charity Run for LifeBloom, from Berra Hotel, Ngong

This week we’re running from Berra Hotel, Ngong, which is always a very welcoming place to runners, and is a great starting point for some amazing trails. And to make it even more special, it will be a Swara charity run! We are supporting LifeBloom Services International, a Kenyan nonprofit based in Nakuru County, supporting women and children who have been coerced, abused or trafficked. They provide counselling services, income generation support, sanitary pads distribution, and linkages to essential services. Since 2004 they have supported more than 10,000 individual women and given them back control and hope in their lives. Distances from 5km to 30km, majority trail. Registration is FREE for this run, but donations to support LifeBloom are encouraged. See the Starting Line for more details and to register, and/or donate. Paybill 530 500, account name ‘donation’.
