Welcome back to the 4th Edition of the Malaysia Women Marathon 2016, the annual event for ladies in Malaysia!

There is a new Route!! and to make it a better route, there will be a road closure on this highway from 2am to 10am, which means there is a cut off time for you to run this year.

Please don’t fear the cut off time. Join our running clinics. We have 6 sessions and each has a target planned. You will be evaluated to your potential ability and trials will be given.

As a custom, MWM will hold a women dialogue session and other interesting programs during our Race kit collection and Expo days. The Race kit collection and Expo days will be hosted by Rimbayu IJM Lands. Join us for the interesting programs we have set up for the expo. There will also be a relay run of 3km for the corporate companies to race and raise charity. Do check out the programs from 4-6th of March 2016.

Look out for this year’s finisher items (only full marathon and half marathon runners get it this year) and hopefully it will be used in many other occasions.

The theme for this year is simply RUN SISTERS RUN!. This, every woman does it well except for 2016 we will do it better!

See you on 6th March 2016 at Shah Alam, Selangor.

Date: 6th March 2016

Race Venue: Dataran Kemerdekaan, Shah Alam (GPS Coordinate: 3.07266, 101.515861). This year the route runs through the Lebuhraya Kemuning Shah Alam (LKSA) and into another section of the city not run in the previous MWM years. This highway will be closed to traffic from 2am-10am. Please note there will be cut off times on the highway.

Please look at the map and the checkpoint cut off time. Should you not get to the checkpoint by that cut off time, you will not be allowed to continue your run into the highway. We advise you to follow the training plan and schedules for the running clinic to ensure you are able to meet this cut off time. Fear not, these cut off times are actually rather reasonable.

Route: The maps will be subjected to minor changes depending on technical advice from the Persatuan Olahraga Amateur (Amateur Athletic Association) and the Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia.

Registration Fees
The increase of fees is to be used to sustain part of toll fees for closure of the highway, Lebuhraya Kemuning Shah Alam and the good service tax effects.

** Male participation in MWM is via their registration as pacers. The pacers can only register with the Order Number of a pacee. So please obtain the Order Number from your pacee. Each pacee is only entitled to one pacer. The Pacer cannot run ahead of their pacee and finish ahead of her. His main role is to be a personal pacer and ensure whatever request the pacee needs is fulfilled. Should you run ahead and pass the finish line ahead of her, she gets disqualified and your situation will be rather sad after that....not only she will nag you, we will as well.
