The Le Minerale Surabaya Marathon is a city race that aims to reconnect Surabaya, Indonesia, through running.
The official description pairs the event with the city's energy, resilience and identity as the City of Heroes.
The idea is to show both residents' commitment to exercise and the city's character through a run across Surabaya's streets.
The race was first held with support from the Surabaya city government.
It ran in consecutive years until the global pandemic halted it, then returned as the city's running event.
The official description spells out this pause and comeback,
framing the event as both a continuation of the original race and a fresh start for sport in the city.
The race also highlights its history of runners from Indonesia and abroad running together through central Surabaya.
The Indonesian Shopping Center Management Association (APPBI) initiated the event with the city government's support,
so it is a race built by institutions and groups based in the city.
The organizers' goals include making physical activity part of everyday life and showcasing Surabaya's local character and hospitality.
Competitive categories are Open, National and Master.
Foreign runners can enter the Open category, while the National and Master categories follow rules for Indonesian participants.
Local athletes and international visitors run the same city streets while competing in their own categories.
A city race with a strong local identity that stays open to runners from abroad: that is what defines the Surabaya Marathon.
