About the Accra 10K
The Accra 10K delivers Ghanaian hospitality along the Atlantic coast. Runners navigate through this historically significant West African capital. December's dry season creates better racing conditions though still challenging heat as participants experience both colonial architecture and contemporary Ghanaian life. The flat course offers good time potential while showcasing Accra's distinctive blend of African tradition and modernity. Ghanaian spectators create an atmosphere of genuine welcome as participants flow through streets in a nation known for democratic stability. This significant race captures Accra's distinctive character—historically important yet forward-looking—offering a quintessential West African running experience that showcases Ghana's unique position as the first sub-Saharan nation to achieve independence.
