The Women's 5k Run is an annual  non profit Women's Only 5km race event that  brings together women  to  walk and  run  with the aim of throwing light on social issues affecting women and supporting women charities in Ghana.  With our slogan “TOGETHER WE RUN THE WORLD” the run has fun filled activities  including race  t-shirt styling and other networking events  participants can engage in.

THE 2021 VIRTUAL RUN

The 2021 Annual Women's 5k Run is going  VIRTUAL!  With the global Covid-19 pandemic and all the adjustments and changes mass sports had to go through we felt this is the best way to keep us active together. We are excited to do this event with you all and are looking forward to the race day.

THE  VIRTUAL RUN APP-  This year we will be using the Charge Running app for our virtual race. This is an innovative way to stay connect in a race and have a real live interaction with everyone else participating in the event right from wherever you are in the world.

Using the technology of the leaderboard, chatroom, and personalized audio, Charge Running provides you with the feeling of an in-person road race, while still being a fully virtual run event. There is music, commentary on the day ,training manuals , and you can comment upload your pictures and finish times and connect with others from all over the world in real-time, just by stepping outside your front door or hopping on the closest treadmill . An invitation code will be sent to you via a link to your email and phone number after registration.
