Both have been running with the same massage: \u201cTaking strides to end stigma and discrimination.\u201d On the April 1, 2017, both participated in a 21km marathon race in Polokwane. Wamashudu came 3rd place in the Junior bracket, and Philly came 7th in the relay marathon. On the April 8th, Wamashudu participated in an 11 km race in Tzaneen, where he repeated his 3rd place finish.

The other 8 members of the running team are busy training and soon they will also be running marathons alongside Philly and Wamashudu. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
