While Standard Chartered KL Marathon (SCKLM) was called off owing to the drastic haze in October 2015, registration is about to open for the event this year. SCKLM 2016 is open to locals and foreigners, and is one of the biggest sports events in the country.

The organizers have introduced small changes in the SCKLM 2016 such as a staggered registration process to “ensure a better registration experience for runners as it simplifies the online registration process and lessens the chances of web-traffic congestion.”

Other changes to SCKLM 2016 include an increase in the full marathon cut-off time to 7 hours from 5 hours previously, as well as a checkpoint system (where runners must reach within a set time, or they will be pulled from the race).

If you registered for the Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2015, you’ll be given priority (not certain how).

For more information, visit the organiser’s website at www.kl-marathon.com or see the attached press release.

We’ll be running this year, will you?
