Sarawak Energy Marathon

The Sarawak Energy Marathon is held every second of August in Kuching, Sarawak. Bringing together the community and running enthusiasts the running event goes beyond the finishing line. All registration fees are channelled to charitable organisations across Sarawak – reflecting the organisation’s social responsibility effort in powering communities. The Sarawak Energy Marathon offers four categories – 42.2km Marathon, 21.1km Half Marathon, 10km competitive run and 5km fun run – designed for all levels of ability. Formerly known as the Sarawak Energy Isthmus Run, the event has grown significantly since its inaugural edition in 2013 – evolving from a community-focused run into a regional sporting event attracting thousands of runners from across Malaysia and around the world. As it approaches its 2026 edition on 9 August the Sarawak Energy Marathon continues to grow as one of the State’s signature sporting events.
