All is set for the city marathon which has garnered support from sponsors amounting to more than Ksh170 million.
Registration for the race hit the target of the intended 23,000 participants, setting the stage for a gruelling battle for top finishes in the various categories of race events.
Organisers of the race were forced to extend the number of participants to 25,000 following a growing demand for participation in the Stanchart marathon.
The proceeds obtained from the Stanchart will go towards helping young people, especially young women and people living with disabilities learn, earn and grow.
