2010 Lewa Marathon - Fri 25th June to Sun 27th June 2010
Lewa Downs, a private ranch and rhino conservation area, hosts an
annual marathon in June through the property. This race is run over a
bush course that winds its way across open plains, through forest and
hills.
The race is a charity fund-raiser set up to raise money for the
conservation of wildlife, in particular rhinos. The event attracts many
international competitors, and is open to both professional and amateur
runners.
The Lewa marathon is a race with a difference, often watched form the
roadside by many of the species it has been set up to protect.
