🎀 125KM FOR BREAST CANCER – WE KEEP PUSHING

Five days ago, we launched the Miles Against Cancer 125KM Lusaka–Mazabuka Breast Cancer Awareness Ultra Marathon fundraiser.

I am deeply grateful to the first two donors who have already stepped forward to support this life-saving mission.

But the journey has only just begun.

On 1st May 2026, myself and 10 other runners will run 125 kilometers to raise awareness and support for women battling breast cancer. Many women cannot afford screening or treatment, and together we can help change that.

Every donation — no matter how small — helps us bring hope to someone fighting cancer.

❤️ Support the mission here:

If you cannot donate, please share this campaign so it can reach someone who can.

Together we run. Together we fight cancer.

My name is Natasha Chilambwe. I will be participating in the Lusaka–Mazabuka 125KM Breast Cancer Awareness Ultra-Marathon organised by Miles Against Cancer (MAC) on 1 May, 2026.

Breast cancer is one such cancer that continues to affect thousands of women and families across Zambia and the world. Many lives are lost not because the disease cannot be treated, but because it is discovered too late.

That is why I have chosen to stand up, lace up my shoes, and run for a cause that truly matters.

This 125KM ultra-marathon from Lusaka to Mazabuka is more than just a run — it is a powerful journey of hope, awareness and solidarity with every woman battling breast cancer.

Through this run we aim to:

■Promote early screening and early diagnosis
■Raise awareness about breast cancer prevention
■Support patients and families affected by cancer
■Encourage communities to speak openly about cancer

Running 125 kilometres requires courage, sacrifice and determination. But the fight against cancer requires even greater courage from those battling the disease every single day.

As a participant, I am proud to run under the banner of Miles Against Cancer (MAC) — an organisation committed to fighting cancer through endurance sports, advocacy and community engagement.

On behalf of Miles Against Cancer, I also call upon the corporate world to support this life-saving initiative by partnering with MAC in this important run. Your support will help expand awareness campaigns, support cancer patients and strengthen the fight against breast cancer in our communities.

Together we can make a difference.

You can support this cause by:

❤️Sharing this message
❤️ Supporting the fundraising campaign
❤️ Encouraging women to go for screening
❤️ Partnering with Miles Against Cancer

Together we can run for hope.
Together we can run for life.
Together we can fight breast cancer.

Lilanda: The Man Who Runs for Hope and Reads for Wisdom
==============================
For 𝗟𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮, 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 (𝗠𝗔𝗖), reading has never been something he does only when he has spare time. It has been a lifelong companion.

His love for books began in 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹, deepened during 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹, and continued through his 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Even today, despite a demanding schedule that includes professional work, endurance running, leadership of a charitable organisation, and a deep commitment to God, Lilanda still finds time to read.

To him, reading is far more than a hobby. It is a window into worlds beyond one’s own experience.

Among the writers who have greatly influenced him is the legendary novelist Sidney Sheldon, whose captivating storytelling has inspired readers around the world. Lilanda particularly admires the famous novel Bloodline, a masterpiece of suspense that showcases the brilliance of Sheldon’s writing.

A 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗻, Lilanda believes that reading strengthens both the mind and the spirit. It sharpens thinking, broadens perspective, and nurtures empathy — qualities that are essential for anyone leading a humanitarian cause.

He often reflects on what reading means to him:

“𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗜 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁.”

The same discipline that drives Lilanda to run long and demanding endurance races for cancer awareness is the discipline that keeps him learning through books.

Behind every kilometre he runs with 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 is a mind constantly growing through reading — a reminder that great missions are built not only by strong legs, but also by strong minds.

Another quote that perfectly captures the power of reading is:

“𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆.”

For Lilanda, books remain a quiet but powerful force — shaping the vision, compassion, and determination that continue to drive 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 forward.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗟𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗶𝗳𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 🏃🏾‍♂️🙏

Running is not just a sport for me.
It is therapy.
It is discipline.
It is purpose.
It is ministry.

Every kilometre reminds me that I am alive.
Every drop of sweat is proof of strength I once prayed for.
Every finish line whispers: “You didn’t give up.”

Through running, I have cried.
Through running, I have healed.
Through running, I have raised awareness.
Through running, I have carried the fight against cancer one stride at a time.

From Lusaka to Kabwe.
From pain to purpose.
From ordinary miles to extraordinary impact.

Lord, thank You for the legs that move,
the lungs that breathe,
the heart that refuses to quit,
and the vision that is bigger than me.

The journey continues.
Stronger.
Wiser.
Unstoppable.

We run for those who can’t. 🎀💙
