With the new track in place, it’s of no doubt Nyayo Stadium will reclaim its status as a premier athletics venue in East Africa.

As approaches, fans and athletes eagerly await a memorable competition. An event which will be defined by speed, determination and world class finishes.

The event at the Nyayo National Stadium promises thrilling races and record-breaking performances.
