About the Bank Jateng Borobudur Marathon

Bank Jateng Borobudur Marathon is a destination road race rooted in Central Java's communities and temple landscape. The full marathon is the 42.195-kilometer centerpiece of a multi-distance program. Its cultural setting and strong regional identity distinguish it from Indonesia's larger city races.

Course

The marathon starts and finishes in the Lumbini Park area at Borobudur Temple. Roads through the surrounding Magelang area place runners close to villages, farmland, and the temple landscape before returning to the event venue. The tropical setting makes patience more important than chasing an aggressive opening pace.

Race-day weather

Central Java is warm and humid, with tropical rain a realistic part of race-day planning. Even an early start can lead to rising heat, and wet roads may follow a short heavy shower. Runners should plan fluids, cooling, and footwear for humidity rather than relying on a dry-season assumption.
