The Truth and Excellence Foundation, in partnership with the Kevin Sinclair Foundation, hosted its highly anticipated Walk & Run movement over the weekend – an event rooted in fellowship, community wellness, and the shared commitment to build a stronger, healthier nation.
Held “by the bridge road”, the gathering continued its mission under the theme “Building on a healthier culture one game at a time.” Dozens of participants came out to walk, run, and unite behind a growing movement that emphasises the power of consistent physical activity in shaping not only the body, but also the mind and the community at large.
Muhammad Ali, founder and President of the Truth and Excellence Foundation, spoke passionately about the purpose behind the initiative.
“We’re here, as we always say, by the bridge road, doing our regular Sunday run and walk, with the simple vision of transforming our nation and changing the culture when it comes to fitness, so that we can impact mental health, suicide, domestic abuse, and all the other symptoms that our nation are being destroyed by. We can tackle them one step at a time.”
This vision – fitness as a tool for social transformation – has become the heartbeat of the Walk & Run movement. According to organisers, the ultimate goal is to strengthen community bonds, raise awareness about social issues, and create a space where individuals feel supported in their journey toward physical and emotional well-being.
The collaboration with the Kevin Sinclair Foundation further amplifies this mission, uniting two organisations with a shared commitment to empowering individuals through wellness, education, and community support. Their joint efforts highlight the meaningful impact that partnerships can have when addressing challenges such as mental health struggles, domestic abuse, and the ongoing need for safe, positive environments for youth and adults.
It’s a bold step from the Truth and Excellence Foundation and the Kevin Sinclair Foundation to give a positive impact on fitness, mental health, tackling suicide and domestic violence,” cricketer Sinclair shared in brief remarks.
Participants expressed gratitude for the opportunity to exercise in a group setting, noting that events like these inspire consistency and offer motivation that’s often difficult to sustain alone. Organisers confirmed that the weekend’s turnout reflects a growing interest in health-focused community engagement.
