Running 5K in Dhaka

Using these routes for 5K training

Anything between 3 and 7 km works for a 5K block. Use the shorter loops for interval sessions where you want to repeat the same stretch, and the 6–7 km options as easy recovery runs.

Picking by elevation

Flat routes give you repeatable splits, which matters when you are chasing a time. Routes with more climbing are better as strength sessions — expect to run 20–40 seconds per kilometre slower for the same effort.

When to run

January: average highs of 24°C and about 9 mm of rain a month (Open-Meteo historical archive 2020-2024).

Where locals run: Ramna Park, Zia Uddan, Baridhara Park.
