A first-time visitor to the Rhodes Run was Saray Khumalo well known for her '7 Summits with a Purpose' project.

Saray does wonderful fund raising and wrote this after completing the 30th Rhodes Run. We enjoyed reading her second paragraph-

"Wow....what an amazing run it was with the most friendly people on and off the trail. My first Ultra trail run, Rhodes 30! Thank you for the wild card #RhodesRun30
 
Mavis was as promised an interesting climb. She seemed impossible until she was conquered. The run offered breathtaking views, frozen rivers were crossed and frozen falls could be seen from a distance. Water points had amazing energy boosters and friendly people!
 
Thanks for Garmin SA for the Fenix 5 x...cool device and kept me in check! #GarminSA
 
Well, that was great training for bigger things to come. For now remember that we have a date this Mandela day at Isiziba Primary school where we will be fixing up a library and investing in our future leaders. #countusin #7summitswithapurpose #italwaysseemsimpossibleuntilitsdone! #nevergiveup"
 
Thank you Saray. Hopefully the first of many Rhodes Run medals for you.
