Buzeki Leads KH3 7 Hills Run to Empower Girls

The leaders of the KH3 7 Hills Run have picked Hajjat Sharifah Buzeki as their Chief Runner for next year's event. Ms. Buzeki runs the Kampala Capital City Authority as Executive Director. Everyone can join her at the race happening on Sunday, March 16, 2025. She hopes many people will sign up to support this important cause.

Her participation shows how businesses and government can team up for important social causes. She received her running gear on Wednesday and talked about what this meant to her. She believes running as Chief Runner goes beyond just a personal goal - she wants to help every girl access education. She feels happy to lead this project with many supporters.

The KH3-7 Hills Run aims to build a better tomorrow for Africa. Money raised through the event will directly help programs that remove obstacles keeping girls from going to school. Organizers just released the official map showing where runners will travel during the event. Runners will start at Millenium Ground Lugogo, previously called KCCA Grounds.

For the CEO Fun Run, participants can choose between three distances: 21 km, 10 km, and 5 km. Maps include marked places for water breaks along each path.
