Kondwani Chiwina (born 22 October 1979 in Dedza) is a Malawimiddle distance runner who specializes in the 800 metres.Just as is common for African athletes, he discovered his ability to run by chance. While at Mtendere Secondary School in Dedza district (Central Malawi), Chiwina was scheduled to meet a relative some 11 Km away from the school. Having no money to pay for his bus fare, Chiwina decided to run the distance and to his surprise he just needed 50 Minute to come to his destination.
Chiwina competed for Malawi at the 2004 Summer Olympics, and also at the 2004 World Indoor Championships, the 2005 Summer Universiade and the 2006 Commonwealth Games. His Personal best time for 800m was achieved at the Athens 2004 Olympic games where he clocked 1.49.87. In 2004 he won a Silver medal at the Zone Six University Students Games held in Namibia. Kondwani Chiwina gave up competitive sports due to health related reasons soon after obtaining an MSc. in Environmental Management at the University of Kiel in Germany.
