But why do they charge 1K?

You do realise that it is associated with charity. The proceeds go towards a cause, that is why it is not free.

Registered last Saturday for 10k. My no 11xxx, look out for it at the finishing line.
BTW, our t-shirts are of a lower quality than the ones for the 21k and 42k runners, but we have all paid 1k each. Etemesi, mbona ubaguzi?

It should be free,because I can still run on the same track before or after the day of the marathon.

If its charity, then Stan-chart should do that through its CSR.

Impunity, do you really understand this, they are fellows like you who still run along without having paid, hakuna roll call but it's part of Stan Chart's CSR!!!

I did 21 Kms in 2 hrs 10 mins last year, was hoping to do it under 2hrs this time round, unfortunately I wont be around during that weekend!!!!

All the best to those who will participate!!!!

I intend to do the 42K again.

I know, I know, I should have my head examined.

Maybe I will

Good luck. 21K almost broke me and I was six years younger in 2004. Ja-kom how long is your race for 1.10?

Full marathon (42km) is run in about 2 hours 15 minutes; then you did a half marathon in 2 hr 10 minutes!!!!
I now know the size of your belt.

Haiya-ee!!!!

What is this obsession with free things?

@Impunity; SCBK pays for all the preparations including t-shirts, publicity, electronic tagging etc. Then all the registration fees goes towards charity... helps those with eye problems hence, "Run for Sight".

What would rather they do? Give the money spent in organising to charity?

Last years I did the family fun-run [4km]. My son said it was too short. So we agreed to do the 10km this year.

If he asks for 21km next year, ataenda peke yake!!!!
