RUN FOR FUN Mahidol Dental Charity Run Salaya 2026

RUN FOR FUN (รัน ฟ.ฟัน: หมอฟันชวนวิ่ง) is a community charity running event organised by the Dental Student Club of Mahidol University's Faculty of Dentistry in association with the university's foundation. Its first edition takes place on Sunday, 13 December 2026 at Mahidol University's Salaya campus, Nakhon Pathom, west of Bangkok. The event welcomes the public, university students, alumni and staff to get active together while supporting dental-student activities.

The runs

The university's official 19 October 2026 announcement confirms 5.25 km and 10.5 km options. These are the actual advertised course lengths, not exactly 5 km and 10 km; ARC's nearest 5K and 10K filters are approximate discovery labels. The event offers standard and VIP packages for either distance. Course maps, start-line location, cut-offs and race-day requirements should be checked in the final organiser instructions.

Official flag-offs (ICT, UTC+7): 05:00 for 10.5 km and 05:30 for 5.25 km. The organiser’s ThaiRun registration page lists both category starts.

Entry and charity support

The university advertises THB 750 standard registration including a running shirt and commemorative medal, or THB 1,250 VIP registration with an additional bag. Mahidol Faculty of Dentistry students, alumni and personnel may receive a 10% discount, subject to eligibility and current checkout conditions. Net proceeds support the Mahidol dental-student activities fund. The university states Thai tax receipts may be available for registrations and qualifying donations; entrants should independently check personal tax eligibility.

Online registration is directed to the official ThaiRun page. 20 November 2026 is a postal-delivery cut-off, not an established registration closing date: the university says those registering later must collect their shirt and bib at the event. A secondary organiser-information compilation reports bib collection at the Faculty of Dentistry, Phaya Thai, on 11 December and at Salaya on 12 December, but exact venue and hours should be reconfirmed. Current remaining spaces and the final registration deadline were not independently verified.
