Lagos State held her 3rd edition of Access Bank marathon on the 10th of February 2018 at Eko Atlantic City (EAC), Victoria Island. The winner of 3rd edition – Abraham Kiprotich, a Kenyan born French athlete was awarded the price money of $50,000 from Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode. Other categories were equally awarded.
Below are my highlights from the marathon.

The marathon was fun, I enjoyed covering every part of it, and maybe next year I should challenge myself to run! Who’s running with me next year?!
