The second edition of the Lagos City Marathon held today, and this is what we gleaned: Kenyans are the bomb, Ikoyi Link bridge Saturday jogging is for nought and Ambode is putting Lagos on the map.
See below:

they even got to the finish line with an 8secs interval between them. Their ancestors must have been running too. #IGetStamina #RunLagos

They do say running is healthy to the body… looking at the winner of #RunLagos he doesn't look as such to me. I'm I missing something? 🤔🤔🤔 https://t.co/Z0kxwu9KZk
