The Jakarta administration fosters high ambitions to make this marathon a world-class one as it will promote sports tourism as well as general tourism in Indonesia and, more generally, it constitutes a good opportunity to put Jakarta into the global spotlight due to worldwide press coverage.

About 10,000 professional and amateur participants, from 15 to 20 different countries, are expected to join the marathon. There are six race categories: the full marathon (42,195 km), a half marathon, a 10K and 5K run, a wheelchair run and, lastly, also a children's sprint (Maratoonz). Total price money amounts to IDR 4 billion (USD $353,982).

The event, fully supported by Indonesia's Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy as well as the Jakarta City Government, is organized by Inspiro in cooperation with the Association of Indonesian Athletes (PASI) and the Amaury Sports Organization (ASO).
