History
The club began when co-founders Oghenetega Akintola and Olachukwu, both fitness enthusiasts, started running together and were inspired by global running communities. They launched with a single weekly run, inviting others to join, and grew organically into a multi-chapter community focused on inclusivity and holistic wellness.
