AGRO Mini Marathon Chiang Mai 2026

AGRO MINI MARATHON 2026 marks the return of the Faculty of Agro-Industry's running event at Chiang Mai University after an absence of approximately nine years. Organised on the Mae Hia campus on Sunday 27 December 2026, the event invites runners and walkers to finish the year with outdoor exercise and support for university students.

Community running and student support

The faculty's September 2026 event announcement uses the Thai slogan 'Run with heart, go together' (วิ่งด้วยใจ... ไปด้วยกัน). It says that all proceeds remaining after event expenses will support student activities at the Faculty of Agro-Industry. This makes the event a university community fundraiser as well as a chance for local and visiting runners to experience Chiang Mai's Mae Hia campus.

Race distances and entry

The current-edition event programme advertises 5 km fun run (THB 350) and 10 km mini-marathon (THB 400). The university’s published route-map images specify the actual course lengths as 5.4 km and 10.5 km respectively; the shorter names are the advertised category labels. The university's organiser announcement states that registration opened on 22 September 2026, directing participants to the dedicated official event website. Availability and any closing date have not been independently established, so check directly before paying.

The map location identifies the faculty building within Mae Hia campus; the final start line may be elsewhere in the event area.

Verified faculty contact and entry information (3 November 2026)

The Faculty of Agro-Industry's official contact page lists saraban_agro@cmu.ac.th and +66 53 948 206 for general university enquiries. These are faculty-wide details, not a dedicated race-registration helpline. For entry availability, payment and participant notices, use the event's official registration website. The university site offers registration links; a final entry closing date and remaining capacity are not stated, so neither is assumed. This listing covers the physical Mae Hia event, not the separately offered virtual10km challenge.
