As ​the ​capital ​city ​of ​Indonesia, ​Jakarta ​is ​the ​melting ​pot ​for ​people ​from ​various ​cultural ​and ​ethnical ​backgrounds ​interconnecting ​with ​one ​another ​as ​they ​dwell ​in their ​daily ​lives. ​The ​myriad ​cultural ​and ​ethnical ​factors ​combined ​with ​sense ​of ​celebration ​and ​the ​spirit ​of ​sportsmanship ​are ​represented ​by ​the Mandiri Jakarta ​Marathon.

In ​October ​27, ​2013, ​the first ever Mandiri ​Jakarta ​Marathon was held, with 10,000 ​runners ​participating in this ​festive ​event. ​ Following the success of this inaugural event, the Mandiri Jakarta Marathon returns on ​October ​26, ​2014 ​and ​will ​be ​showing ​Jakarta’s ​uniqueness, ​beauty, ​diversity, ​and iconic modern ​landmarks.

A Plethora of Entertaining Activities for Runners!

Similar to last year, the Mandiri Jakarta Marathon 2014 race route will give elite runners, national athletes and other participating runners opportunities to enjoy the beautiful scenery of iconic landmarks in Jakarta namely Old City area, Fatahillah Square, Station Kota, Cathedral Church, Istiqlal Mosque, Monas, and Hotel Indonesia Roundabout.
