Athletics Kenya Press release regarding the state of road races in the country

This is a press release from Athletics governing body of Kenya on 3^rd January 2019,  touching on the road races across the country:

PRESS RELEASE

As you are all aware Athletics Kenya is the only body in the country charged with the organization of all athletics activities locally and therefore, no any other body has the mandate to execute the same.

However, we have noted with concern the mushrooming of illegal road races across the country and the trend is really worrying. We are aware a few individuals have turned to road races around the country into a cash cow at the expense of the athletes.

From now hence forth, AK will take charge of all road races with the help of our affiliates to ensure organisers do not take advantage of the runners.
