Beer District was the latest venue for a morning of training, fitness and community service.
The run brought together participants of different abilities, from first-time runners to experienced marathoners, as they build their fitness and train together ahead of the 23rd edition of the marathon.
The Nairobi run is the first in a series of warm-up activities planned ahead of race day, with more community runs expected in the coming weeks, including the Mombasa satellite run in October.
The activities are aimed at helping registered runners prepare physically for the race while promoting healthy lifestyles and building a stronger running community across the country.
