Jukueja Runners Carrying Local Wisdom Through the Streets of Makassar
Jukueja Runners was born in Makassar in 2012 from a belief that running carries something deeper: the spirit of local wisdom. Founded on the principle that community transcends pace and background, the crew has grown to around 170 runners who gather under the Makassar sky three times a week. Local culture is not a backdrop here, it is the reason they lace up. At Jukueja Runners, identity and place run together. The atmosphere remains welcoming and grounded, reflecting the unpretentious character that only Makassar can produce. Every Monday at 6am, they start at Monumen Mandala. Wednesday and Thursday evenings at 7pm find them at Lapangan Hasanuddin, running with purpose and community at the heart of everything.
