Kavishka's Colombo Run, I'm still speechless‼️

This was better than I expected and I cannot thank each and every one of you enough for showing up for something bigger than just a run.

A special thank you goes to the amazing sponsors that backed me to make this happen.
The fantastic team behind the scenes that connected everything together. @saseni__weerasinghe @yazidn__ @alisonwijemanne @ameena.musthapha @neeshwck @serendipity.eventslk You were incredible. @chad_stergram
You were an amazing mascot and you stole the show with a cuteness overload.

To everyone who helped promote this event, I'll never forget you. And of course @tailsoffreedomsl My heart was so full to see a huge and beautiful turnout coming together to support what you do. What your team does is truly amazing.

What better way to celebrate my 30th Birthday. Let's do this again next year 🫶🏼

THEY RUN. WE RESCUE. 🐾

On October 10th, a whole bunch of people are getting up far too early 😁 and running through Colombo for our rescues.

And every person who signs up helps us do more of what you see here — rescue, treat, rehabilitate, rehome, and give animals who need it another chance.

We’re just 5 days away, and we’d really love to see more of you at the starting line.

You don't have to be a serious runner. Come run, jog, walk — just come be part of it.

Kavishka’s Colombo Run
Saturday, 10th October
6.30 AM onwards
Arcade Independence Square, Colombo

Run with them. Help us rescue the next one.
