200 participants from all over the world came together in one small town in Uganda. Masaka – the home of The Uganda Marathon.

For one week, these legends learn about the hopes, challenges and dreams of the community here.

Spending time working with local community projects. Seeing firsthand how their support is changing lives.

Getting under the skin of what life is like in Uganda, and becoming part of the family here.

After a week of intense activity – of participants challenging themselves, working hard alongside the community, and an endless supply of dance, music, food and art – it’s time for the race.

A tough, but rewarding course. 10k, 21k or 42k of rolling red earth tracks. Across hills and valleys. 5,150 runners – from Uganda and across the world – coming together. To run shoulder to shoulder. Laughing and smiling. This isn’t a race about personal bests. It’s a celebration of community and helping one another.

Our last runner crossed the line in 9 hours 30 minutes. And we waited to cheer them across the line. Because The Uganda Marathon isn’t about how fast you can run, it’s about how much you can experience. How many people you can help.

The amazing runners and participants in The 2019 Uganda Marathon have raised £164,130!

That’s 15 fully funded sustainable community development projects. Plus classrooms, latrines, clean water, and livelihoods secured all over Uganda.

This is their legacy that will continue for decades. THANK YOU.
