2026 Results & Race Recap
Miri Marathon 2026 was held on Sunday 12 April 2026 in Miri, Sarawak, with 42K marathon, 21K half-marathon, 10K and 5K categories. The full marathon's advertised flag-off was 1:00 am Malaysia time, giving the longest-distance competitors some hours of cooler night-time running before sunrise.
Race location and course character
The start and finish centred on Jalan Merpati near Permaisuri Imperial City Mall, with the Sarawak tourism calendar documenting the event. Miri is a coastal city in northern Sarawak; its road-marathon format contrasts with the mountain and rainforest ultramarathons elsewhere in the state. Entrants could choose between the full marathon and shorter community-oriented courses.
Official verification and results
The Association of International Marathons and Distance Races (AIMS) lists Miri Marathon's 2026 edition, independently supporting its historical event date. The sources reviewed did not provide a dependable completed 2026 podium table, full finisher count or exact leading times. ARC therefore leaves those fields unclaimed rather than using results from 2025 or another Sarawak race. Official timing information should be consulted before updating individual winners or records.
Race-day details and practical history
The longest category was announced for a 1:00 am start; start times for other distances differ and should be checked against the original runner guide. The event's shorter 5K and 10K options allowed participation beyond experienced marathoners. This page is an archival record of 2026 and should not be interpreted as open registration for a subsequent Miri Marathon.
