The Kuala Lumpur Standard Chartered Marathon (KLSCM) is the first and only road race in Malaysia with a World Athletics Elite Label, set to be held on 3 and 4 October 2026. It is an international event drawing participants from Malaysia and over 70 countries, and has been selected as the official preliminary selection event for the marathon category for SEA Games 2027.

Why attend here

Run the iconic 42k through Kuala Lumpur's vibrant streets in early October, when the city enjoys drier, cooler weather perfect for racing. After crossing the finish line, refuel with a bowl of fiery curry laksa at a bustling hawker centre, and take in the Petronas Towers' glittering skyline from the KLCC park.
