The BDMS Bangkok Marathon is Thailand's original big-city marathon, run since 1987 and staged overnight through the streets of the old capital — the full marathon starts around 12:30 a.m. and finishes at dawn in front of the Grand Palace on Sanam Chai Road. The AIMS-sanctioned road course passes landmarks such as Wat Phra Kaew and the Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall, and offers marathon, half, 10K and 5K distances.
