The 2026 KGL Millennium Marathon in Accra saw a massive turnout of thousands of runners from Ghana and beyond. Kenyan athletes shone in the elite races, with Alex Korio claiming victory in the men's category and Lucy Ndambuki winning the women's race, setting a new course record. The event aligned with the KGL Foundation's Mental Health initiative, specifically the Mental Health Index (MHI) - a digital tool to raise awareness and education on mental health in Ghana.
This initiative followed the Millennium Marathon’s Corporate Wellness Forum, which introduced a Health & Fitness index to evaluate corporate organizations based on physical wellbeing, mental wellbeing, and community engagement.
CEO of the KGL Foundation, Elliot Dadey, expressed his satisfaction with the event's success, praising the teamwork involved and the achievements of all participants. Over the past five years, the KGL Foundation has made significant social interventions across the country, including the construction of the KGL-EVE Wellness Centre, the facelift of the Accra Psychiatric Hospital, and the rollout of the Mental Health Index.
The marathon served as a platform to promote physical fitness, mental wellness, and community development, solidifying its position as Ghana’s leading international road race.
