Back to Rhythm campaign promotes heart health

The Back to Rhythm campaign started at Nyayo National Stadium on Thursday. It also involved cardiac screening for over 2,000 athletes in Nairobi and Eldoret.

There was a cycling challenge thereafter from Nairobi to Eldoret, led by career cyclist David Kinjah. 

The campaign is part of the efforts to drive Heart Health awareness and was a precursor to the World Heart Day on Sunday. This third phase specifically targets sportsmen and women engaged in rigorous sporty activities, who are said to be vulnerable to heart-related complications.
