MUNA Charity Run 2026 brings runners, families, students, alumni and the Khao Thong community together on Saturday, 12 December to celebrate 15 years of Mahidol University's Nakhonsawan Campus. With a timed 10 km mini-marathon alongside more relaxed 5 km and 3 km options, it is both an early-morning running event and a community fundraiser. The organiser states that entry proceeds support the Mahidol University Foundation and that qualifying contributions are tax-deductible in Thailand.

Three very different routes

The 10 km mini-marathon heads beyond the campus into Khao Thong, passing the police station, local school, railway station, community streets and Wat Khao Thong before returning via the railway overpass. The 5 km walk-run explores the campus ring road, patches of inner forest, farmland and a hillside firebreak. Families taking on the 3 km walk follow the campus ring road past MUNA Lake and the entrance sign. All three routes start and finish in front of the campus Science Building.

Race morning

• 04:00–05:00: Last-minute bib and race-pack collection at the Science Building.
• 05:00: Group warm-up.
• 05:30: Timed 10 km runners start.
• 05:40: 5 km walk-run starts.
• 05:50: 3 km walk starts.
• 07:00: Overall 10 km presentations.
• 08:00: Scheduled close of the event.

The 10 km uses chip timing and awards its leading three men and women. The first ten finishers in each event are also eligible for a souvenir. There are no age-group podium categories. Standard, VIP and discounted entries for children under 12 in the shorter events are offered; check the corresponding category before entering.

Planning your visit

Allow extra travel time to reach the Nakhonsawan campus in Phayuha Khiri district, not Mahidol University's better-known Salaya campus near Bangkok. Most race packs can be collected in advance from the Science Building during 7–11 December, 09:00–16:00, or in the limited race-morning window. Bring your confirmation and identification. Running bibs cannot be transferred to another person. The official registration page contains the race maps, shirt sizing and any final changes.

Booking and collection conditions

The official RUNLAH registration rules require payment within the booking site's permitted checkout period; an unpaid application can be cancelled automatically. Each person may enter only once per category, and using another person's details or lending/selling a bib is prohibited. Organiser details also explicitly state that race packs are not delivered: entrants must arrange in-person collection at the campus Science Building during the advertised dates, including the limited 04:00–05:00 race-morning window. The organiser reserves the right to reject registrations that breach these conditions without refund. Confirm your reservation and bring proof of registration for pickup.
