Runners Wild is a part community uplift and part trail run. Our community programs are built around trail runs and other sporting events that we organize.
Our first run series was in Bario, in the state of Sarawak in Malaysia. We ran this for 3 years, trained volunteers from the community on race organization and event management. After our term ended, some of them started their own trail run.
Our programs are run on a 3-year basis, so the local community has a time frame to absorb and learn from experience organizing a trail run with our team. Our hope is that they will also be able to use the skills they have learnt to apply into other areas that may help them in the future.
With the current uncertain times in the world, we are NOT organizing any events. Instead, we are focusing on community outreach programs in the Himalayan state of Ladakh in the India. This includes working with the Druk White Lotus School to run cultural exchange programs with schools from other countries in the Asian region.
