sprint to your country

Truth be told, we’ve been there. Trying to find the best local running trails on our own… Let’s just say our GPS, five wrong turns, and a very confused goat were involved. Running was never meant to be done alone and neither is figuring out where to train, how to recover best, who to run with, which physio or coach to trust. Our vision is to build a connected running community across East Africa and this is the first step.
