Deputy President William Ruto was forced to run for the whole 21 kilometers yesterday in support of President Uhuru Kenyatta’s wife, Margret’s Beyond Zero Half Marathon, to raise money to buy mobile clinics for all the 47 counties to reduce maternal deaths beyond zero.
The Deputy President, adorning Beyond Zero jazzy number 26999, was meant to do only ten kilometers since he had not practiced well for the exasperating and tedious marathon, but found himself doing the whole 21 kilometers after he lost track and direction.
His aides and security, who were running alongside him just in case of any eventually, could not help him locate the direction for the 10km race because they didn’t know the route well.
By the time Ruto realized he was on the wrong route, he had done 12 kilometers already and he could not go back. He forced himself to complete the whole 21kms which he had not prepared or signed for.
“I was to do 10km but lost the route and my boys didn’t know the direction either and by the time I realized, I had done 12km already and just decided to finish the whole 21km,” Ruto told journalists.
The Deputy President reached the finishing line looking like he had walked across the Sahara Desert - tired, sweaty, dirty and panting.
