Athletes who will be competing at this year’s Kaptagat Half marathon can now test the course after it was marked today.

The race, which enters its second edition, will be held next Sunday 8th 2019.

Officials from Athletics Kenya accompanied by the Local Organising Committee marked the route that will start at Tuyigwet Dispensary and will end at Strobag Centre along Eldoret-Kaptagat Road.

Three time world half marathon champion Geoffrey Kipsang Kamworor is the race ambassador. Last year, two time Toronto marathon champion Philemon Rono won the men’s title while former world cross country junior bronze medalist Cynthia Jerop carried the ladies title.
