This September, the Kilimanjaro Trail Run (KTR) will offer four high-altitude races over two days on Africa’s tallest mountain. Mount Kilimanjaro is a beacon directing our attention toward climate change, deforestation and the need for clean energy and clean water.
The Kilimanjaro Trail Run will champion these global issues and demonstrate how runners can shoulder the responsibility of caring for each other and the planet we share.
“Trail runners from around the world can be assured that the event is founded on the principles of sustainable development, improving communities, educating the public around global issues of climate change, and connecting socially conscious brands and development organizations with the event,” said Ingrid Beutler, co-founder of the Sustainable Mountain Alliance.
Events kick off on Saturday, September 3, with a 21km trail half marathon. Sunday, racers can pick from a full 42km trail marathon, or push their limits even further with 67km and 74km ultra events.
The Kilimanjaro Trail Run is the ideal destination race. The 67km and 74km ultras will challenge the most experienced endurance athletes. The half marathon is designed to be a terrific introduction to high-altitude running. There is a race for everyone in your running group and a seat in the Land Cruiser for your post-race wildlife safari in the Serengeti.
Registration for the Kilimanjaro Trail Run opens Monday, March 7. Early bird discounts are available. Click here to register.
