The launch of the 3rd edition of the Accra Inter-City Homowo Marathon took place on Tuesday, June 11, at the media centre of the Accra Sports Stadium, organised by Medivent Consult and sponsored by Serene Insurance.

The event is scheduled for August 3rd, 2024, starting at the Accra Sports Stadium and finishing at the Trust Sports Emporium. The competition will feature three categories – 5km, 10km, and 21km – each with a unique route, all converging at the Trust Sports Emporium.

Henri Senyo Penni, General Manager of Medivent Consult, has confirmed that they have put in place all necessary arrangements to guarantee a successful event on August 3rd, 2024.

“Adequate arrangements have been made for hydration and security, and the Ghana Ambulance Service will be present to handle any situation that may arise.”

He reiterated that they anticipate a large turnout for the event. ‘Our goal is to consistently attract a huge number of participants. We also aim to provide value to our sponsors, who are looking for significant numbers. By doing so, we hope to discover and nurture talented individuals for future competitions in Ghana. This year, we expect to have over 1000 participants at the Inter-City Homowo Marathon’.”

Mr. Ben Nunoo Mensah, President of the Ghana Olympic Committee (GOC) and Chairman of the organization, praised William Ezza and the organizers of the Accra Inter-City Marathon for their outstanding initiative.

I wish to commend William Ezza and the organizers for this noble initiative. This is the 3rd edition since it started in 2022. Congratulations to Mr. Ezza and his team for keeping this going. Many times, programs start and fade away in the second year, but Mr. Ezza’s dedication to sustaining this initiative is truly appreciable. I highly appreciate his efforts.”

“As sports enthusiasts, marathon running comes with numerous benefits, especially for the young, middle-aged, and older individuals, as well as professional athletes. This provides you with the opportunity to put your training into practice. When you train without competition, you may be shocked when you reach the international level and face top athletes in the marathon world.”

“This also provides a forum for our local long distance marathon runners to showcase their skills and compete against other local runners.”
