Nairobi Marathon is an annual road running competition over the marathon distance held in every month of October in Nairobi. The Marathon was first held in 2003.
As time went by, the competition expanded and now includes a half marathon race along with the main race.
It was part of “The Greatest Race on Earth”, fully sponsored by Standard Chartered Bank. The other three legs of this four-marathon race were the Hong Kong Marathon, the Mumbai Marathon and the Singapore Marathon.
The winners of the Marathon share a whopping Prize of 8,000,000 KES.
Since the launch of the Seeing is Believing initiative in 2003, the Bank has raised more than Sh250 million. Among the programmes funded so far include screening of 6.2 million people, 170,000 surgical interventions, training of over 2000 health workers and upgrading of more than 10 health facilities around the country.
