Amazing History of the Kilimanjaro Marathon

Kilimanjaro Marathon

Kilimanjaro Marathon

CORRECTION:

Our original post read: “While you may have read about the Kilimanjaro Marathon in our last year’s blog entry, most people are unaware of the unique history of the race and its founder…”

Marie Frances’s Mt. Kilimanjaro Marathon was incorrectly associated with the Kilimanjaro Marathon. The Mt. Kilimanjaro Marathon, run for the past 21 years in June, is an annual run often completed in association with Kilimanjaro climbs.

The Kilimanjaro Marathon is run in February and is an IAAF race that attracts over 3,800 runners.

We would like to thank John & Debbie Addison for pointing out our mistake and also inform readers of our blog that our 17-day Kilimanjaro Marathon and our 20-day Music, Mountain, Migration and Marathon trips are both centered around February’s Kilimanjaro Marathon.
