Hundreds of runners from across the country are participating in the 2023 First National Bank Accra Marathon which took off this morning, November 11, at the Maritime University in Nungua.

The runners are vying for honours in races, including the intensive 42.2-kilometre run which is meant to test the endurance of professional athletes, a five-kilometre run for students and a 10-kilometre race dedicated to corporate entities.

The Accra Marathon race made a triumphant return today following a landmark move by the First National Bank and the Dansoman Keep Fit Club (DKFC) who signed a momentous five-year partnership agreement to breathe life back into the prestigious event, which has been dormant for the past six years.
