The Swazi 5K is a popular event in our community. People from all ages over central Oklahoma come to participate in a walk/run/or cycle to raise funds for needed ministries in Eswatini, Africa (formerly Swaziland) and in Bethany. Bethany First Church of the Nazarene is an active local church serving its community as well as the world in an effort to bring hope and healing to the nations through Christ.
For 2022, we are providing three ways to be involved in the Swazi 5K.
You can join an In Person event on Saturday, September 17 for the 1-mile fun run at 7:30am and the 5K at 8:00am. The start and finish lines are on the campus of Southern Nazarene University and there will be a lot of free food and great door prizes!
You can choose to join a Virtual Swazi 5K, that begins on Saturday, September 10, at 8am and ends Friday, September 16, 2022 at 8pm.
You can also join something new with a Virtual Bike Ride to join in the fun of the Swazi 5K. You will have from Saturday, September 10, at 8am until Friday, September 16, at 8pm to ride as many minutes as possible.
You will be guaranteed a t-shirt in your size if you register by September 7.
All three of these events will benefit our selected ministries in Eswatini and in Bethany.
The cost is $30 for adults and $20 for students.
