Caesar TariganRan in 2023

“I set a personal best at this half marathon.”

Caesar Tarigan made it through the hills and ran downhill in the second half at the 2023 Maybank Bali half marathon. He walked briefly due to fatigue, but finished without cramping and set a personal best.

Christine WongRan in 2023

“I found the last 5 kilometres very difficult.”

The runner took part in the Maybank Bali 21K on August 27, 2023. Cheering villagers and the aid station kept them going, but the final 5K was tough; with their husband's encouragement over the last stretch, they crossed finish.

Start line is at the Bali United Training Center in Gianyar Regency.

The race has three events: the marathon, half marathon, and 10K.

The official website says course is AIMS-certified and the race is held under the supervision of PASI (Indonesian Athletics Federation) and World Athletics.

The same page also presents the race as part of the World Marathon Majors ranking program.

The race began under a different name in a different region.

When it was first held in Karangasem on April 4, 1999, as the 'Karangasem Bali International Marathon',

it had two events, half marathon and 10K, and 147 participants.

As sponsors changed, it went through names including Bali Marathon and Maybank Marathon.

Getting to the start

no rail/BRT access — Bali United Training Center, Sukawati, Gianyar (rural)

Marathon starts 04:30 WITA — no public transport runs pre-dawn on these rural roads, so use a private car/taxi or the official shuttle. Nearest airport: Ngurah Rai Intl (DPS).

Official Race Day Shuttle Bus add-on sold by the organizer (IDR 60,000); specific pickup points not yet published — check the official Race Guide closer to race day.

Transit card

Gianyar has a regional bemo (mini-bus) terminal, but bemos have no set fare, take circuitous routes, and tourists commonly get overcharged — cash only, not recommended. Trans Metro Dewata / Trans Sarbagita BRT buses pass through the greater Sarbagita area at a flat cash fare of around IDR 3,500, but schedules are unreliable.

Most travelers rely on Grab/Gojek ride-hailing apps or rented scooters.

READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

The Gianyar area has a tropical rainforest climate, with little temperature variation throughout the year.

August falls within the dry season, which runs from April to September, and is among the year's driest months, with average rainfall of 95mm.

Daily highs generally remain around 29-31°C and lows around 20-22°C, however, so the humid tropical heat persists even when rain is limited.

The official website states that this course is AIMS-certified and held under the supervision of PASI and World Athletics.

The same page describes it as part of the World Marathon Majors ranking programme.

The start is at the Bali United Training Centre in Gianyar Regency.

The programme includes a marathon, half marathon and 10K.

Times are local to Gianyar. Check the latest official information before the race.
