Eldoret City Marathon

The Eldoret City Marathon is more than just a race—it's a platform for rising long-distance talent and a rallying cry for environmental change. Held in the high-altitude heartland of Kenyan distance running, this marathon gives emerging athletes a rare chance to shine on home soil, even without agent representation. It attracts a highly competitive field and offers participants the chance to gain national recognition and international visibility. But the event’s impact extends far beyond sport. With a strong commitment to climate advocacy, the Eldoret City Marathon leads a campaign to plant at least one million tree seedlings, using the race as a launchpad for awareness and action against climate change. In uniting elite athleticism and environmental activism, this marathon represents the spirit of progress—for both people and the planet.
