To achieve our primary goals, we would stage regular running events, provide resources to assist athletes train properly, help in carefully managing sporting talents, develop sports facilities, create endowment funds and scholarships for promising Ghanaian long distance runners, and undertake sports research. We are passionate about long distance running, and have resolved to help lift Ghanaian long distance track and road running to world levels.

We would also embark on advocacy and social marketing, and help promote healthy living through regular exercise among the general population, while supporting and promoting worthy social causes.

Our goal is to use our expertise and experience to empower people to live fitter, healthier lives through active participation in our races, community events, instruction and training resources, and youth, executive, and maternal fitness programmes.
