Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Sixteen Rwandan athletes are set to enter a residential training camp for intensive preparations ahead of the 17th Kigali International peace marathon scheduled for May 29.<\/p>\n

The camp will take place in Musanze District (at the Cycling Center) from Tuesday May 3 and run for 20 days, after which the athletes will come back to Kigali for a few days of adaptation of the competition circuit.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s edition will be a special one since the marathon has been awarded a World Athletics Label, an award that recognises high standards in event organisation, safety and runner experience as well as application of the World Athletics rules and regulations.<\/p>\n

The label categorises elite competitions, with implications on ranking points available to international elite athletes, and Olympics and World Championships qualification slots offered by the highest categorised competitions.<\/p>\n

A statement from RAF said that the Kigali International Peace Marathon will benefit from International exposure as a World Athletics Label race, and this will \u201cattract so many international elite athletes to the race.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor events with a mass participation component like Kigali International Peace Marathon, Labels also signify superior standards in safety and runner experience,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a milestone for the Kigali International Peace Marathon in the global road racing community; It\u2019s a stepping-stone towards excellent future events, when the event will have an even more coherent structure of organization, with better-defined tiers to guide fans and athletes, and with integrity measures that are proportionate to the level of the competition,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
