A few days ago, we shared ₦30,000 in relation to Capital City Race, and we realised there was some confusion around what that figure meant.

The ₦30,000 was an indication of the value of the race experience and what it costs to put that experience together for a runner. It was never the registration fee.

Courtesy of our partners and sponsors, the Capital City Race is still free!

Registration opens in 7 days.

Our first Capital City Race Training Run brought the community together, and we’re glad you were part of it.

If you missed this one, don’t worry. There’s another one coming.

17/08/2026

₦30,000 in Lagos.

That's 4 Uber rides from VI to Ikeja. OR
That's one dinner at a decent restaurant. OR
That's your Netflix and DSTV for a month. OR
That's a new pair of mid-range running shoes.

BUT
It's also: a chip-timed 10K on a closed road through the capital. A finisher medal. An official CCR t-shirt. A finisher pack. Water every 2km. And a story you will tell for years.

We are telling you the price on September 1.
Set your alarm.
