Run for a purpose with Rehan Greeff CA(SA)

Join fellow South Africans two days after the Top 35-under-35 networking event in London on 8 July for a Run for a purpose event. Get your tekkies dusted off and the SAICA team, Andile Khumalo, and the teams from Makosi and Standard Bank. Afterwards we’ll all have a braai, some drinks and enjoy the day with each other.

Rehan even gives you access to a training programme, challenges, team meetings and social runs in London as a lead up to the day!

Come join us!

Entry is FREE, but pledge to help raise funds towards ForAfrika.

Wide variety of possibilities depending on capabilities and level of challenge: 2km fun run for kids and parents; 5km; 10km; 21km; 42km; ultra-marathon

More about Rehan

Run Forest Run – founded by Rehan Greeff CA(SA) – is a passionate running community dedicated to using their talents and love for the great outdoors in a way that positively impacts those less fortunate.

He started his ultra-endurance adventures with a 100km trail run back in 2017 and annually has taken on crazier and more elaborate plans, including setting a record for a 300km run around London in 2021, whilst training 67 other runners (beginners, intermediates and experts) to run the furthest that they have ever run before in their lives. Last year he completed 3 full Ironman-equivalent triathlons in 3 countries –South Africa, Uganda and the UK -in the space of 6 days!

Through these self-created challenges, Rehan has become ForAfrika’s largest individual fundraiser, raising just shy of £100,000. His efforts have impacted thousands of children via ForAfrika’s school feeding schemes throughout Africa, which is aimed at breaking the cycle of poverty through education.
