Race Info
The Penang Bridge International Marathon is run in December on the Sultan Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah Bridge, the 24 km Penang Second Bridge between Batu Kawan on the mainland and Penang Island, Malaysia. Since 2024 the start and finish have been at Aspen Vision City in Batu Kawan. Marathon runners cross the bridge to the island side near Bayan Lepas and return overnight, with the half marathon and 10K run on the same morning. The race is organised by the Penang state government and is a full member of AIMS.
