NLC Borobudur 10K 2027

The NLC Borobudur 10K 2027 returns to the countryside around Borobudur in Magelang Regency, Central Java, on Sunday 3 January 2027. Organised by Nusantara Learning Center, the event combines a community run and walk with fundraising for education under the theme Run, Fun and Fund: Lari untuk Edukasi. It is promoted as part of the NLC EduRun Series, following the Borobudur EduRun community events.

Purpose and community impact

The organiser's campaign highlights an intended IDR 100 million contribution towards repairs at ten schools in Magelang Regency, as well as an allocation of IDR 10,000 from each registration fee to educational initiatives. These are stated fundraising intentions, not a report of money already distributed. Participants are helping local education while running or walking in the Borobudur area.

Race-day experience

The start and finish are advertised at Gerbang Gajah, Kembanglimus, Borobudur, near the temple area's rural communities. The published overall programme start is 05:30 WIB (UTC+7). Three routes are advertised: 3K Fun Walk, 5K Fun Run and 10K Fun Run. Only the 10K is advertised with chip timing; shorter-distance participants should not expect a timed ranking. Final individual flag-off times, exact route maps, water-station positions and road management instructions remain subject to organiser confirmation.

Registration and race kit

Advertised regular prices are IDR 125,000 for 3K, IDR 200,000 for 5K and IDR 250,000 for 10K. Earlier priority offers have appeared at lower prices, but those promotions should not be assumed to remain available. One published event listing gives 20 December 2026 as the planned registration deadline; this has not been independently confirmed through a live organiser announcement, and entry may close earlier if places sell out. Use the organiser's current Instagram profile to verify the live application link, payment instructions, pricing and availability.

Organiser listings indicate Saturday 2 January 2027 for pre-race bib collection at Gerbang Gajah, but opening hours and final arrangements are still to be confirmed. Bring your registration confirmation and follow the organiser's instructions.

What to expect

The published participant information includes race clothing, a bib, a tote bag, refreshments, hydration, a door-prize opportunity, a photobooth and access to event photographs. 5K and 10K are listed with finisher medals, while the 10K additionally has a timing chip and e-certificate. Benefits can differ by category and entry tier, so the final race-kit announcement takes precedence. Reported male and female open and masters podium awards should be checked with the organiser before entrants rely on any prize values.
