About Rwenzori Mountains Runners Club

Our Mission

Rwenzori Mountains Runners Club is dedicated to promoting physical activity and healthy lifestyles among young and disabled in the mountain community of Western Uganda. 


The club was started when 7 locals challenged themselves to run up to 4 summits, including Margherita Peak at 5109m, in one go. The run was completed despite bad weather, mud, cold, and poor gear, and proved as an inspiration to other locals that great things can be achieved.

    Lack of Equipment

    We need more and better equipment. Running and especially Mountain running requires equipment. What you might take for granted is often a luxury for us. Most members do not have proper mountain running shoes and many are climbing in rubber boots.
