Fast-rising 400m sprinter Zablon Ekwam will be among the stellar cast of athletes, who will turn the first Athletics Kenya (AK) Track and Field Weekend Series into a precursor of the 2020 Tokyo Games build up at Maseno University on Friday and Saturday.

Apart from the Olympics and Africa Cross Country championships, major events lined up for the year include World Under-20 Championships and Africa Championships.
