SP Mai Fun Run Sungai Petani 2026

SP Mai Fun Run 2026 brings a community-focused 5K to the historic Menara Jam Besar (Sungai Petani Clock Tower) in Kedah on Saturday, 5 December. The organiser, Gendang Digital, promotes a welcoming, non-competitive event with up to 1,000 participants, offering a morning of running and shared activity rather than a ranked road-race competition.

Race-day programme

• 6:30am MYT: Participants assemble near Menara Jam Besar, Sungai Petani.
• 7:00am MYT: Group warm-up.
• 7:30am MYT: Official 5K flag-off.
• 11:00am MYT: Advertised end of the event programme and course cut-off.

The 5K course starts in the clock-tower precinct. The organiser's current registration information does not confirm a certified measured course, timing-chip results, detailed turn-by-turn route, hydration stations or parking instructions. Allow time to find the start assembly and check the organiser's latest race briefing before attending.

Registration and eligibility

The organiser lists a regular adult fee of RM59 for ages 13 and older, and a children's fee of RM45 for ages 7 to 12. Its former RM49 early-bird adult offer ended on 21 September and should not be assumed available now. The advertised registration deadline is 31 October 2026, or earlier if the 1,000 available places sell out. Platform charges, if applicable, should be checked at checkout. Under-18s need parental or guardian consent; an adult must supervise any child they accompany.

Race pack and event rules

Race-pack collection is scheduled for Tuesday, 1 December 2026, at SP Plaza, Sungai Petani, but the organiser has not yet confirmed collection opening hours. Bring registration confirmation and identification. Someone collecting on another entrant's behalf must have proof of registration and authorisation. The organiser advises that uncollected packs may be forfeited without prior arrangements. Bibs and entries are not freely transferable, and accepted registration payments are generally non-refundable except as the organiser decides.

Finishers receive an event medal only after completing the designated course. Choose the event shirt size carefully, as availability and changes are limited. Participants should follow marshals' instructions and any safety or weather changes; organisers may alter the event when necessary.
