Pick up your bib, check your wave.
So on race morning, you can just run.
No railway station in Kajen; nearest is Stasiun Pekalongan, ~30 km north on the north-coast Java rail line. Kajen town has an intercity bus terminal (Terminal Induk Kajen) and local angkot service.
Start/finish at Lapangan Mandurorejo, Jl. Krakatau No.
2, Kajen (Kabupaten Pekalongan) — an inland town away from the coastal rail line. Public transit to the venue itself is limited; car or ojek is the practical way to reach the venue.
Pekalongan is a mid-size Javanese city with no dedicated IC transit card system like Jakarta's; local transport relies on angkot minivans, becak, and ojek (motorbike taxi) or ride-hailing apps (Gojek/Grab), all paid in cash or via the app. Most foreign visitors will use Gojek/Grab for race-day logistics rather than public transit.
Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.
Kajen has no train station, so travel by car from Pekalongan Station on Java's north-coast line (about 30km) or use Kajen's intercity bus terminal.
With the tropical climate, plan your hydration even for a dawn start.
Entries are taken on the lawana.id platform, and the deadline is early — about 2 weeks before race day.
Times are local to Pekalongan. Check the latest official information before the race.
