Lagos came alive once again as thousands of runners participated in the 11th edition of the Access Bank Lagos City Marathon. From elite athletes to first-time runners, participants took on the 10km and 42km routes with determination, resilience and unmistakable Nigerian grit.
But beyond the finish line, another important phase began; ‘recovery’.
Recognising that endurance does not end when the race is over, PZ Cussons Nigeria, through its trusted household brands: Premier Cool, Joy, Robb Extra Menthol and Morning Fresh, powered a fully equipped Recovery Zone at Eko Atlantic City, ensuring runners received immediate and practical post-race care.
