Learn more about us
Runshanba is a weekly running event held in the parks of Tashkent. Every Saturday morning we are gathering to start our day with a run and spend time in a good company. On last Saturday of every month we hold a race run where we record times of every participant and later publish it on our website. That way every runner can track their progress, since the locations change but the length is always the same and amounts to 5 kilometers. Every Runshanba event is handled by volunteers who will help participants not to get lost on a track, meet them at the finish line and offer some water and hot tea with treats after a run. Runshanba is a non-profit, so we always welcome people who are ready to volunteer and bring some treats to the table.
