Temerloh Book Run 2026

Temerloh Book Run is a community-focused 5K organised by Perbadanan Perpustakaan Awam Pahang, bringing runners and walkers together at Dewan Tun Razak in central Temerloh. The event starts at 7:00am on Saturday, 31 October 2026, and is designed as an accessible fun run rather than a long-distance or elite race.

The published route graphic measures the course at approximately 5.17 km. It begins and finishes at Dewan Tun Razak and follows town roads around central Temerloh, with only modest elevation change shown on the organiser’s profile. Participants should nevertheless follow the final course markings and marshal instructions on race morning, as the map is an event guide rather than a surveyed certification.

The advertised entry fee is RM39. Registration closed on 30 September 2026, or earlier if the limited allocation filled, so late entrants should check directly with the organiser before travelling. The current registration page also publishes official artwork for the event T-shirt and medal. Exact race-pack collection arrangements, timing provisions, age divisions, prize details, hydration points and cut-off rules have not been stated in accessible current-edition text and should not be assumed.

For race day, runners should arrive early enough to park, locate the assembly area and be ready before the 7:00am start. Temerloh is typically warm and humid, even in the morning, so participants should plan hydration and sun protection appropriately. The venue map pin refers to Dewan Tun Razak; the precise start mat position may be confirmed in later organiser instructions.
