Safaricom Women First 5km Run
Join Safaricom Women First 5km Run
The WOMEN FIRST 5km, a 5km women's-only run in Addis Ababa, was started in 2004 - the same year as the Athens Olympics - to recognize the achievements of Ethiopia’s great female athletes. It also aimed to support the broader changes regarding the role of women in Ethiopia’s economic and social life. Ethiopia's double Olympic gold medallist Meseret Defar is the ambassador for this event.
WOMEN FIRST has grown into the biggest women's-only run in Ethiopia and one of the biggest in Africa. The race takes place traditionally around the time of International Women’s Day on 8th March.
Each year, this race publicizes important social messages which focus on women's empowerment.
