The second annual Re-discover Nandi Road Race has received Ksh 3 billion boost from Mozzart Bet.

The road race is geared towards environmental conservation and restoration of the county’s
shrinking water towers and wetlands.

For the second year in a row, leading betting firm Mozzart Bet has been unveiled as the title sponsor for the annual Re-discover Nandi Road Race 10km set for Sunday, 3 July.

In line with this year’s theme, Efforts to support Green economy and enhancing
resilience to climate change risks, a tree-planting exercise will precede the race
on Saturday 2 July. This event brings together all the tea estates in Nandi
County for a stakeholder’s engagement and the tree planting exercise.
“The theme of the race has always been in line with Mozzart’s mission to make
Kenya a better place for the communities. The forest cover in Nandi is 24% and the intention is to push it to 50% to supplement government efforts of achieving 10% forest cover countrywide,” said Sasa Krneta, Country Manager while announcing the sponsorship.
Each of the participating athletes will also be provided with tree seedlings to
plant as part of measures to mitigate climate change. This is through an
initiative themed “Nandi Forest Cover Champions”.
Last year, experienced long-distance athletes Nancy Jelagat and Emmanuel
Bor conquered the hilly course to be crowned champions of the 12th edition in Kapsabet.
Jelagat who won the 2019 Family Bank Half Marathon clocked 31.30 to storm
to victory ahead of Daisy Jerotich who timed 31.38, while Naumi Chepng’eno
completed the podium places in 32.31.
Bor, finished meters ahead of closest competitor Daniel Kiprotich in 28.21 as
the latter bagged silver in 28.39. Victor Rotich was third in 28.42.
Among notable winners of the event since its inception in 2006 is World
Championships bronze medalist at the 2017 and 2019 events in 10,000m, the late Agnes Tirop who won the 2018 edition of the race. Others include 2012
World Half Marathon bronze medalist Paskalia Chepkorir.
Mozzart has spent over Ksh 100 million so far in supporting community
projects.

“We are undertaking the 100 wells for the Kenyan communities’ project and have so far dug eight boreholes in various counties in Kenya. We also continue to support sports teams with equipment all over the country,” said Krneta.
“We have also donated crucial equipment to hospitals especially at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic but the most important thing for us is making the country a better place for all of us to live in and enjoy,” added Krneta.
The Mozzart company has been operating on the gambling market since 2001.
