Athletics Kenya has announced a date amendment for the highly anticipated 6th AK Track and Field Weekend Meet, originally scheduled for May 16th and 17th, 2025, at the Ulinzi Sports Complex in Lang’ata, Nairobi.
The event will now take place earlier, on Thursday, May 15th and Friday, May 16th, at the same venue, due to unavoidable circumstances1.
To facilitate a smooth registration process, bib collection for participating athletes will be conducted on Wednesday, May 14th, at the event venue, with collection running from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.
Athletics Kenya has encouraged athletes to continue registering for their preferred events using the provided online link.
The meet will feature a comprehensive range of track and field events for both men and women, including sprints (100m, 200m, 400m), middle and long-distance races (800m, 1500m, 5000m), hurdles, and a variety of field disciplines such as discus, hammer, pole vault, high jump, long jump, and javelin1.
This broad program is expected to attract top local and regional athletes as they seek to sharpen their form ahead of upcoming national and international competitions.
The 6th AK Track and Field Weekend Meet is part of Athletics Kenya’s ongoing efforts to provide regular, high-level competition for athletes across the country.
The event is also seen as a key opportunity for athletes to post qualifying times and distances for major championships later in the season.
Athletics Kenya’s Media and Communications team has assured participants and stakeholders of their commitment to delivering a well-organized event despite the revised schedule. The organization urges all athletes to take note of the new dates and to complete their registration in good time to avoid any last-minute inconveniences1.
With the calendar for Kenyan athletics packed in May, the rescheduled meet is expected to maintain its status as a highlight for both established and emerging talent.
