What is the MTN Kampala Marathon?
The MTN Kampala Marathon, now in its 17th edition, is an annual athletics road event that has been a mainstay on the Ugandan sports calendar since its inception in 2004 giving participants “a good reason to run” because apart from running for health and fitness, they get to contribute towards a community-benefiting project.
The proceeds from this year’s marathon will go towards kitting maternal and newborn facilities in four Health Centers across the country. The beneficiary health facilities include Kisenyi and Kawaala Health Facilities in the suburbs of Kampala as well as Kachumbala (Teso sub-region) and Kabong (Karamoja sub-region).
The 17th edition of the MTN Kampala Marathon will take place on Sunday, 20th November 2022 starting at Kololo Independence Grounds.
