25,000 Runners Expected For Lagos Women Run by Bobnicez20(op): 3:55am On Nov 04, 2022

Organizers of the annual Lagos Women Run have confirmed that about 25,000 runners will be participating in the November 12 race.

The coordinator for the Lagos Women Run, Tayo Popoola, disclosed this in Lagos on Thursday.

“In this year's edition, we are expecting about 25,000 runners in the categories of the elites and the fun runners,” she said.

According to Popoola, over 18,000 runners have already registered online while over 10,000 printed physical forms are now being collated. Popoola also hinted that this year's route for the 10km race will be different from the past editions.

According to Popoola, this year's race will start from the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS), Lagos Island, and end at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena (formerly Onikan Stadium), Lagos Island.

She explained that this year's route has been carefully mapped out to give the participants a good feel of the Center of Excellence and also showcase the growing beauty of Lagos State to the world at large.

These races are just organised for some East African women resident in Lagos to win.
Let's hope a Nigerian woman will win this time.

Not only East African, Australians and a host of Western countries who take their sports seriously will also grace the event. Nigerian women will not even see 10th place, most of them will drop out before getting to the end. 10km na beans?

Winning isn't the goal, I think the idea is the spirit of sportmanship and to keep our women fit... Winning can come later in the future
