"It's the way I tell 'em" *

Last Saturday we completed the ‘Kiwoko Chess’.

We had thought is was a 16.5 km 'Chase' (10 mile walk / run) around Kiwoko, but unfortunately there was a printing mistake on the tee-shirts. No matter; we don’t think we would be any better at brain-power than foot-power.

 

There were about 120 people entered in the Chase – half of which were walkers wearing green tee-shirts. To avoid walking in the heat the start was at dawn – just after 7am.

 

 

The race was along the roads and pathways around the hospital, and was a good chance to ‘catch up’ with people – by chatting if not by racing.

 

 

At the end everybody got a prize and a certificate.

 

 As for the results, it’s just that some people are simply faster than others

 

 

This week’s proverb from the BBC Africa web-site is from Nigeria : "If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together"
