women and children were killed in attacks that commanded global headlines,
Tegla Loroupe organised with the Tegla Loroupe Peace Foundation (TLPF) another

The
results did not matter as the 400 runners turned up to compete for peace, said Tegla in a phone
conversation with Switzerland: „When I visited here in September, people were killing each other but
now, the two communities have embraced peace.”
The Conflict over natural resources and utilization of the waters of the
River Tana has been contentious for a while, leading to frequent clashes by
pastoralists and farmers in the County. In September the TLPF already mobilized
over 60 professionals from Tana River to travel to the affected areas to preach
peace. Today 1500 people took part in the three-day Peace Activities, among
them reformed warriors from Uganda, Sudan and West-Pokot, Kenya.
From Switzerland, ON Running had sponsored 100
