THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE REGDESK ๐Ÿ’™

Their role may sometimes look like the small stuff. It isnโ€™t. Registration. Participant check-in. Getting people smoothly from registered to ready to go. Luggage control and safety. Explaining routes, rules and procedures for the 17th time. Medal and merchandise redemption. Answering โ€œsasa bag yangu iko wapi?โ€ when someone has forgotten where they left it.

These are our Event Desk Marshals - important cogs in the Blue Ribbon event machine whose work may sometimes go unseen, but without whom the machine simply wouldnโ€™t run.

Thank you for the effort, the attention to detail, the dedication to excellence and, especially, for embracing our culture of going beyond what is expected.

You make our events better. You make our participantsโ€™ experience smoother. And you make the RDโ€™s life considerably less chaotic.

We see you. We appreciate you. Thank you, guys. ๐Ÿ’™

Be blessed. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’

๐Ÿ’™ BLUERIBBONER OF THE WEEK - SHERRY INDAH

โ€œKind of chic to be able to run code and a marathon.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜ Finally, Sherry has found somewhere to use that phrase. ๐Ÿคญ

Mum to twin boys, runner, lover of mountains and the outdoors - and a retired hiker. Apparently after summiting Kilimanjaro she decided she had seen enough. Boots hung. ๐Ÿ˜โ›ฐ๏ธ

She started running simply to keep active. Somehow, that turned into voluntarily waking up early to runโ€ฆand actually enjoying it. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Running became her escape, a way to reconnect with herself and, sometimes, a sanity check.

Some days itโ€™s for fitness. Some days for mental space. And some days because she signed up for something and now has to honour that commitment. Ultimately, her why is simple: health, strength, adventure and becoming the best version of herself.

And then thereโ€™s that beautiful post-run moment: โ€œWaitโ€ฆI actually did that.โ€

For Sherry, Blue Ribbon has also become more than events. Itโ€™s community. Amazing people, memories and a space with no pressure to be the fastest - just show up, move, have fun and cheer each other on.

FROM OUR DESK : Sherry is a core member of the Solecial Circle - a Blue Ribbon sub-cult made up of people, many of whom met through this community, became friends and now run together.

Sherry appears to embody their mantra which is simple really: crunch the miles, collect the smiles, loud laughs + giggles and endless conversations (they never gossip by the way)โ€ฆthen stay long after the run replacing lost โ€œelectrolytes.โ€ ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿป Sherry embodies that spirit beautifully.

This week we celebrate Sherry Indah - runner, twin mum, Kilimanjaro conqueror, proudly retired hiker, ardent BlueRibboner and someone who truly believes that the kilometres are good; friendships they create might just be better.

Flowers for Sherry ๐Ÿ’

๐Ÿ• THE SHAKEOUT YOUโ€™LL ACTUALLY LOOK FORWARD TO.

Picture this. The StanChart Nairobi marathon 2026 is done. The medal is hanging. Your legs are negotiating with you.

Soโ€ฆwhat better way to shake them out than with your three favourite running humans, a relay, a medal and and pizza?

Welcome to the SoleMates PIZZA TEAM CHALLENGE 2026 - Last Slice Standing.
โš™๏ธ 31 October 2026
๐Ÿงญ Lavington

Not your ordinary relay. Itโ€™s a gradual relay, inspired by sharing a pizza.
๐Ÿ• Runner 1 starts alone.
๐Ÿ• Runner 2 joins in.
๐Ÿ• Runner 3 joins.
๐Ÿ• Runner 4 joins.

Then, just like a pizza disappearing slice by slice, the relay gradually winds downโ€ฆ
Runner 1 finishes.
Runner 2 finishes.
Runner 3 finishes.
Until the final SoleMate brings the pizza box home as the Last Slice Standing.

Each runner covers 12KM, making 48KM for the team.

Whether your team chooses to run, jog or walk, thatโ€™s entirely up to you. Chase a fast time, catch up with old friends, tell stories, laugh through the kilometres or simply enjoy the morning together. Every team writes its own story on the loop.

Every participant receives:
๐Ÿ‘• Official event T-shirt
๐Ÿ… Custom finisher medal
๐Ÿงฃ Custom event buff
๐Ÿ• 1 Green Table Pizza meal
๐Ÿ“ธ Team photos and unforgettable memories

๐Ÿ’™ Move Better Monday | Issue 006

You donโ€™t need to lift heavy to get stronger. A little strength work can help you walk better, run better and keep moving longer.

Strong isnโ€™t about size. Itโ€™s about what your body can do.

๐Ÿ”ต 99.9KMS PROST8 VIRTUAL WALKATHON 2026 IS BACK!

After a successful inaugural edition that brought together over 150 participants in 2025, the 99.9KMS PROST8 Virtual Walkathon returns this September as we commemorate Prostate Health Month.

The challenge remains beautifully simple:
๐Ÿšถ Move a minimum of 3.3 kilometres daily
๐Ÿ“… 1st - 30th September 2026
๐ŸŽฏ Complete at least 99.9kms cumulatively
Walk before work.
Run after work.
Take the stairs.
Walk the dog.
Do a lap around your estate.
Just keep moving.

Because 99.9 is more than a distance.

It represents our belief that we are always one conversation away from complete prostate health awareness. There is always one more man to reach, one more family to educate and one more life that could be positively impacted through early testing and preventive health.

Registration Fee - ๐Ÿ’ฐ KShs. 2,970

Your Registration Includes
๐Ÿ… Exclusive Finisher Medal
๐Ÿงฃ Custom Event Buff
๐Ÿงฒ Collectible Fridge Magnet
๐Ÿ“ฑ Access to our private participant accountability and morale group

No racing. No pressure. No competition.
Just 30 days of consistent movement and a powerful reminder that our health deserves attention before problems arise.

99.9 Kilometres. One More Conversation To Go.

Registration is now open; slots are limited - https://www.blueribbon.or.ke/events/99-9kms-september-prost8-virtual-walkathon-challenge-2026

๐ŸŸฆ 2nd Annual GO FIGURE HALF MARATHON 2026 ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿฝ

Not every half marathon is about speed. Some are about creativity. About movement. About the story your route tells.

Last year, many runners produced masterpiece GPS figures. Others...well...let's just say a surprising number of people somehow managed to amputate a limb or two from theirs. ๐Ÿ˜… This year is your chance at redemption.

On Saturday, 12th September 2026, join us for a fully supported 21.1KM through the roads of Lavington, Kilimani and Kileleshwa.

Your mission is simple:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Run the route.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Draw the figure of a person.

Every participant becomes part runner, part artist; using GPS to transform their run into a giant human figure on the streets of Nairobi.

Designed for runners with some half marathon or similar distance experience, this is a challenge best enjoyed at a run or run-walk pace, with marshals and hydration stations supporting you all the way.

Your entry includes:
๐Ÿ… Exclusive finisher medal
๐Ÿณ CJ's Restaurant breakfast combo (fresh juice & hot beverage included)
๐Ÿ“Œ Blue Ribbon Actives reusable race bib clips
๐Ÿ’ง Fully supported course with hydration & marshals
๐Ÿ“ธ Professional race photography

๐Ÿ’ฐ KES 3,890

๐Ÿ’™ Wisdom Wednesday | Issue 005

You donโ€™t get stronger only by training. You get stronger by recovering from it.

Rest. Refuel. Sleep. Move gently. Then come back ready to go again. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ

Recovery is part of the training.
