About Us
Impact Sport Association Limited (by guarantee), or simply put – Impact Sport, is a non-profit company fully incorporated with Uganda Registration Services Bureau (URSB). Impact Sport’s vision is to transform lives through sport. In fulfilment of the organisation’s objectives, Impact Sport organises an annual run called The Legends Marathon. This is not just a race. The Legends Marathon embodies a journey of transformation, supporting active and retired athletes in their transition to retirement with dignity. The idea was conceived by a Ugandan journalist majoring in sport, Andrew Mwanguhya, who – after witnessing first hand how sports men and women struggle with life after active sport over the years, decided something sustainable had to be done. And in November 2023, The Legends Marathon was born.
We present an annual family-friendly event in Kampala that provides a supportive transition for both retired and active athletes, presents a platform for new talent and elite runners, as well as recreational runners and the community to be the best version of themselves.
