The 2025 Langkawi International Half Marathon, scheduled for Friday, December 6, offers a compelling "runcation" experience on Malaysia's stunning Langkawi Island. Organized by Langkawirunners, this world-class event provides a remarkably flat course ideal for achieving personal bests, winding through picturesque paddy fields and offering breathtaking views of mountains and the surrounding lush landscapes. Participants can choose from the main Half Marathon (21.1 km), a 10 km race (often designated for international runners), or a shorter 5 km fun run. A unique feature of the race is its air-conditioned indoor start and finish line, located within the Mahsuri International Exhibition Centre, ensuring a comfortable experience regardless of the tropical weather.
