We occasionally organize pop-up pick-ups at select events or running club activations — but you should plan to collect your kit from  Kampala .

✅ Remember to bring your Confirmed Entry email or receipt (printed or digital) when collecting your kit.

What’s inside your race kit

Every kit includes: Your official race shirt, other goodies and a sealed envelope containing: your race bib (number) and 4 safety pins to attach your bib to the front of your race shirt.

Your race bib is what links your name to your time — so take care of it!

  • Do not fold, bend, or damage the bib — the timing chip is embedded in it.
  • Wear it on the front of your shirt, clearly visible at all times.
  • If you don’t wear your bib, or if it’s damaged or unreadable, your result may not be recorded.

We’ve seen runners miss their official time due to folded or missing bibs. Don’t let that be you.
