Our Amazing Friends
It takes a village...
A special thanks to Gill & John Elias of The Sanctuary at Ol Lentille for sharing their local knowledge about the area, for opening their home to us, and for keeping the idea of the race and our scholarship fund alive. None of it would have been possible without them.
Learn more about how their luxury resort Ol Lentille Sanctuary is contributing to economic and community development and their non-profit arm Ol Lentille Trust which supports community projects. Read our 2015-16 Partnership Agreement with the Ol Lentille Trust here |
We are also incredibly grateful to our race organization partners who will continue to to make the Amazing Maasai Marathon possible: Thom Gilligan of Boston-based marathon travel expert, Marathon Tours. And Michael Hughes of Drumbeat & Race Director of the Nairobi Marathon.
Together they represent a formidable team managing The Amazing Maasai Marathon from 2014 onwards. Thanks to them the marathon will continue as a unique community-based challenge for both international and local Kenyan runners, and as a primary fundraiser for the Amazing Maasai Girls Project. |
Our most sincere thanks to Maurice Duteau & Shirley Gu of Temco Controls in Shanghai, China for their generous financial contribution, which not only got the Amazing Maasai Marathon off the ground but has enabled the scholarship to grow and continue. They provided the original seed capital for the race and we are forever grateful that you believed in the idea!
