The 2019 edition of the Access Bank Lagos City Marathon is likely to break the previous records of participants in the IAAF Bronze Label race.

Just a week after registration opened, about 20,000 potential runners have collected forms at the Teslim Balogun Marathon Office.

The other outlets like The Revolution Plus Offices in Ikeja and Lekki and Access Bank branches across the country have also witnessed an influx of intending runners according to a statement signed by Olukayode Thomas, Director Communications and Media.

The Access Bank Lagos City Marathon recorded over 50,000 runners in the first edition in 2016, over 73,000 runners in the second edition in 2017 and over a hundred thousand runners in 2018.

The organizers are expecting between 120,000 to 150,000 for the 2019 edition slated for February 2nd    2019. Race Organizer Bukola Olopade said he’s excited that the culture of marathon and road races is   gradually becoming a way of life, not just among Lagosians but generally every part of Nigeria.
