The 'Twin City' Concept
The Twincity Marathon offers four distances -- 5K, 12K, 21.098K and the 42.195K full marathon -- in Cyberjaya, Sepang, Selangor. [1] The race's name references the paired development of Cyberjaya and Putrajaya, Malaysia's technology hub and federal administrative capital respectively -- both purpose-built starting in the late 1990s and adjacent to one another, covered elsewhere in this research batch at the Selangor Marathon and Garmin Run Malaysia. [2]
An Unusual 12K Distance
Alongside the standard 5K and half/full marathon categories, this race includes a 12K distance rather than the more typical 10K -- an unusual choice similar to the Khon Kaen International Marathon's 11.55K covered elsewhere in this research batch. [1]
Genuine International Aggregator Coverage
Research turned up four distinct listings for this race -- AIMS World Running, Finishers.com, Running.Coach, and Sub3-Marathon.com. [1] That breadth of coverage across international running-community sites suggests real visibility among serious marathon travellers, even though no independent participant reviews were found.
Registration Not Yet Announced
As of this writing, registration status has not been announced. [1] With the race date still over five months away at the time of this research, that's likely just standard registration timing rather than any operational concern.
Should You Run It?
If a marathon through Malaysia's paired technology and administrative corridor -- with genuine international running-community visibility -- appeals, the Twincity Marathon on 24 January 2027 is worth watching. Check AIMS World Running or the other aggregator listings for registration updates as the date approaches.
