About This Event

Join us for the 2nd annual River Rwizi Run marathon! Building on last year's success, this year we aim for 3,000 participants and double the impact for River Rwizi restoration. The route takes you through Mbarara's beautiful landscapes, past Lake Mburo turnoff, and back through the city center. Together, let's save the river that sustains over 5 million people in Western Uganda.
