Scenic Half Marathon Rayong 2026 Draws Over 4,500 Runners
The fifth edition of the Scenic Half Marathon Rayong took place on August 2, 2026, attracting thousands of participants to the coastal province.
On Sunday, August 2, 2026, the fifth annual 'Scenic Half Marathon Rayong 2026' was held at Laem Charoen Public Park in Rayong, Thailand. According to Khaosod Online, the event, organized by Raceup Work Co., Ltd., drew more than 4,500 runners from across the country. The race featured a 21.1-kilometer half marathon distance, with Thai athletes Nattawut Innum and Oranong Wongsorn emerging as the champions.
The event was promoted under the theme 'Run, Fun, Eat, Travel Rayong Hi,' highlighting the coastal scenery of the region. For residents and visitors, such events often lead to temporary road closures and increased traffic in the vicinity of Laem Charoen and the Pak Nam sub-district, which may impact travel plans during the race weekend.
While the event successfully concluded with high participation, details regarding the specific economic impact on local tourism or plans for the 2027 edition have not yet been officially confirmed by the organizers. Those interested in future sporting events in the area should monitor official announcements from Raceup Work for updates on upcoming race calendars.
