The 6th Bangkok Post International Mini Marathon 2014

The Bangkok Post International Mini Marathon has been organised for six consecutive years.

The Bangkok Post newspaper, on behalf of the event organiser, has always been committed to raising the standards of competition.

This year we are delighted to introduce the “Champion Chip” electronic timer for our main category events, namely, The Mini Marathon 10.7 Km and The Micro Marathon 5.2 Km.

This will improve accuracy and data processing time, while raising the image of the event to become one of Thailand’s premier events for runners from around the world.
