About Event

At Activate Uganda, we truly believe that the world would not be healthy without women runners. So, to live out our objective of promoting and encouraging wider participation in fitness, we bring you the Women’s Day Run, which will be held on International Women’s Day, Saturday, 8th March 2025 starting at 7:00am at Bushpig  Restaurant located on Acacia Avenue – Kololo

The event is intended to bring together women and their support networks (yes, men and children need to attend) to run, and afterwards, engage in a candid discussion on the runner woman’s wellness, experiences, techniques, lessons, inhibitions, fears, biases, and misconceptions. The goal is to educate and encourage women to adopt and maintain a goal-achieving, safety-conscious active lifestyle.

This is not a competition, but a fun run that is meant to bring the wonderful feeling of a workout coupled with the beautiful spirit of achieving something great, together. The run will feature 16km ,10km, 5km and 3km distances in the beautifully winding neighborhoods of Kololo.

Guiding Principles

  1. This is a women’s run, so we need to see more women on the route than men. Come alone if you must, but it will be more rewarding if you bring a sister, a grandma, an aunt, daughter, niece, etc.
  2. Men and boys, we absolutely need your participation as runners. You, however, must bring along at least one participating female as your qualification to participate as a runner.
  3. All participating males must always run alongside or behind women.
  4. Men and boys, you can also volunteer as fueling station agents and route cheerleaders. Please call or email is if you would like to volunteer.
