The Twin Bridges Half Marathon Muar makes its course the star: a 21.1K route across Muar's two bridges spanning the Muar River, starting and finishing at Dataran Tanjung Emas — the town's waterfront esplanade. A single-distance format keeps it focused, and registration is open. Muar is Johor's royal town, known for its heritage architecture, its food scene (Muar otak-otak and mee bandung), and its laid-back riverside character. For runners wanting a distinctive Johor half marathon with a bridge-crossing course and open registration, this is worth a look.
