Banglen Run For Life 2026 - Nakhon Pathom

Banglen Run For Life 2026, presented by ICONFRESH, takes place on Sunday 22 November 2026 at Wat Bang Len in Bang Len district, Nakhon Pathom province, Thailand. The community running event supports the purchase of medical equipment and supplies for Bang Len Hospital, combining a mini-marathon and an accessible fun run around the riverside community. The advertised start and finish venue is Wat Bang Len; the event organiser is TPN Quality Drinks Co., Ltd.

Race programme and course

The organiser's published programme begins with the event area and bag drop opening at 3:00 am, an opening ceremony at 4:30 am, a warm-up at 4:50 am and a race briefing at 4:55 am. The 10K starts at 5:00 am, followed by the 5K at 5:20 am. Both categories have an announced 7:00 am course closure, which means a two-hour limit for the 10K and about one hour and 40 minutes from the advertised 5K flag-off; the organiser's separate 5K limit text says 1 hour 30 minutes, so runners should follow instructions issued on race day. An awards ceremony, fancy-dress prize announcement and lucky draw are scheduled for 7:30 am.

The published community course takes runners around Bang Len, with river scenery and a local suspension bridge highlighted in the organiser's materials. Participants must keep their bib visible and pass designated checkpoints; shortcuts or leaving the course can mean disqualification. Confirm final route maps, road restrictions and safety instructions on the event's official registration page before travelling.

Entry options and runner arrangements

Standard entry is THB 650 for 10K and THB 550 for 5K. An optional THB 1,500 VIP entry can be used for either distance; it is not a third race distance. The published race pack contains a running shirt, race bib and finisher medal, with an extra finisher shirt for VIP runners. A non-running donation option of THB 500 including a shirt is also advertised; this is not added as a race category. 15 November 2026 is the advertised last registration date, subject to capacity and any subsequent official changes. Remaining places and successful payment require confirmation on the organiser's live checkout.

Awards and practical information

The 10K advertises overall men's and women's trophies for the top three and age-group awards in categories under 20, 20–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59 and 60+. The 5K offers men's and women's overall awards without age-group divisions. Competitors should carry identification when collecting awards and follow the organiser's listed protest procedure. Race-pack collection is at Wat Bang Len, but specific collection days and hours have not been verified in the current information. Allow time for pre-dawn travel and check parking instructions before race morning.
