Back in Kampala and had great weather for today’s morning jog which is nice, arrived my bed 4.30am tired from airport yesterday so couldn’t run. In kasese during the Tusker Lite Rwenzori Marathon last year, a young man walks to me after the marathon and says, I stayed up last night to observe you. He hardly slept, I saw you pacing around, engaging people, I saw your son too doing stuff. I thought if I was you, I would have just slept. I tell him, the whole team hardly sleeps, reason Uganda has a Tusker Lite Rwenzori Marathon which attracts people from more than 30 countries. If we sleep the 1000 Kenyans both runners and those who came for fun wouldn’t have come to Uganda. That means the food they ate wouldn’t have been eaten. The cars they hired from Ugandans wouldn’t have been hired, the accommodations they slept in wouldn’t have worked. If each Kenyan spent usd 600, Uganda would have miss the usd 60k earnings from team Kenya. We need 10,000 Ugandans out of 45.9m to do things that can bring in 1000 Kenyans for example and the country would earn usd 6,000,000 Another 10k bringing in 1000 Americans each spending 2k and figures would be crazy, jobs would never be a problem, critical mass issues. Nothing good just happens

Morning Jog today Waited for the rain to stop so I could go for my morning jog but it didn’t! Mentally I can’t stand excuses , so I went all out with a rain jacket. It’s 4 times a week, 40 kilometers a week, almost a full marathon every week.
