Hundreds of runners will take part in the Run for Life Marathon in Beitbridge today. The race starts at 5am and finishes around 9am. Vice-President Kembo Mohadi plans to meet old friends and people from his hometown during the event. The marathon has different distances for people to choose from.
Dr Benson Martins Dube works as the main secretary for the Vice-President. He said many groups will join the race today. Police officers, prison workers, disabled people and soldiers will all run together. The event brings different communities together for a good cause.
Minister Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri will talk about drug problems during the day. She leads the country's fight against drugs and alcohol abuse. Many government officials and business people will come to support the marathon. The organizers want VP Mohadi to see people he knew when he was young.
After the race ends, officials will visit Mtetengwe Primary School. Cyclone Idai damaged the school badly a few years ago. The storm broke windows and tore off part of the roof. Workers have fixed the building and added new computers.
The Vice-President's office helped pay for the repairs. One classroom became a computer lab with fast internet and new equipment. Rural students can use the same technology as city schools. The school also got a new water well with solar power to pump clean water for everyone.
