Kenya Marafun - we made it!

2018 Kenya Marafun: fun and fund-raising

At 7.20 am on 19 May, 2018 over 200 runners, joggers and walkers set off to complete the challenging Kenya Marafun course through the scenic Hell’s Gate national park.

The former street boys we care for at the Sunshine Centre ran alongside students from the Naivasha Polytechnic, Bishop Wambari school and a team of 10 visitors who had travelled from UK to take part.

Although Kenya has experienced its wettest rainy season for over 30 years, the Marafun day was cloudy but dry - perfect for running, and ideal for the UK visitors)
The event was enthusiastically supported by Kenya Wildlife Service (who patrolled the park to keep the buffaloes at bay), and our Sunshine Boys came home in first, second and third places!
