The an­nounce­ment was made by the BAFAS­PORTS Foun­da­tion, which said the in­ter­na­tion­al recog­ni­tion places the event among oth­er glob­al marathons and sup­ports its mis­sion to pro­mote health, well­ness, and sports tourism through en­durance ac­tiv­i­ties.

Chief Ex­ec­u­tive Of­fi­cer of BAFAS­PORTS, Nigel Bel­lamy, said the list­ing is a sig­nif­i­cant achieve­ment for the or­gan­i­sa­tion and the lo­cal run­ning fra­ter­ni­ty. Bel­lamy said it recog­nis­es the ef­forts of the team, part­ners, and ath­letes who have con­tributed to the event’s growth.
