Last Sunday, 20th November 2016, Sarah Parfitt and some friends ran the Great Ethiopian Run in Addis Ababa. They pushed an Ethiopian friend's father around the course in a wheelchair. Sarah said it was incredibly moving. On Saturday 26th November there was a special Cookham Running Club Handicap Race ("The Great Ethiopian Run Comes To Cookham"). The emphasis was on fun (1 mile or 5km). It was to celebrate all that has been achieved between Cookham and Gende Tesfa. Sarah has two flyers signed by Haile Gebrselassie for the winners. With special thanks to Rachel Sellman for the flyer.
