It was a similar story in the women’s category when  Shauline chepkiru koech of Kenya  won the first prize.

Nigerian runner Davou Ezekiel from Jos finished first amongst the Nigerian runners winning the three million Naira Prize money allotted for the indigenous athletes.

The Marathon which lived up to the pre-event hype with the turn out of runners, fans and the level of organisation, had all the spices of a world class race.

Governor Peter Mbah added colour to the event by participating in the 10km race said the race exceeds every expectation and he is very satisfied with both the participation and competition of the race.

He said: “This race has shown us the power of Sports and what sports can do in galvanising our youth. I am really impressed with what i have  seen and it has only motivated us as a state to put more effort into making the race better and bigger next year”.

Over one hundred International Elite Athletes participated in the race with thousands of Nigerian  runners also taking part and making history as the maiden Edition of the Enugu City International marathon ended in grand style.
