Join ORBIS Ireland and take part in the GREAT ETHIOPIAN RUN and give the precious gift of sight to thousands of people in Ethiopia.
On 22 November 2009 Addis Ababa will play host to Africa’s biggest road race – a challenging 10km at 10,000 feet above sea level – an altitude that will certainly test your physical condition.
Beginning in downtown Addis Ababa, you’ll be joined by 30,000 other competitors. Along with some of the world’s most renowned athletes (Haile Gebrselassie and Richard Nerurkar) there’s a huge variety of runners of all age groups and fitness levels taking part.
