In terms of international standards, MBM has been certified by the International Measurement Certificate number INA2012/009 and has been validated by the Association of International Marathons and Distance Races (AIMS) and Indonesia’s Athletic Association (Persatuan Atletik Seluruh Indonesia / PASI). MBM has qualified as well to be listed in the official race directory of Boston Marathon.
While in terms of security and service, MBM applies an international medical standard and is committed to provide education to runners for pre event marathon preparations. MBM will work together with Running Coaches to conduct training programs, tips and joint training to assist runners to prepare themselves for the Race Day.
“Since the first Bali Marathon in 2012, we strive to accommodate the ever increasing public interest, including our customers, wishing to join the marathon. This is reflected in the growing number of participants annually. As the number of participants increases, we are committed to maintaining the runner’s security and convenience by improving supporting infrastructure,” says Widya Permana, Project Director Maybank Bali Marathon 2019.
Maybank Indonesia has the vision to bring MBM as a world class main sports tourism event. MBM is not just a race for the runners but also an event that involves families to come and enjoy a holiday in Bali. Bali has adequate infrastructure to become the perfect family destination, both for couples and for kids. The infrastructure can accommodate runners from around the globe to join the MBM event.
Since its inaugural marathon, MBM has always been accompanied with sustainable corporate responsibility programs for the local community. A series of community empowerment and educational support programs will again be held by Maybank Indonesia for the Balinese with MBM 2019.
