Leaving Bangkok
For the 21km trail run @ Dong Phayayen, Khao Yai.
It’s about a 2-hour drive; we will upload some photos of anything interesting along the way.
Plus full details of the event, HERE

Arrived Safely
Registration complete, a well-organized event so far.
It would not be a Thai event without the customary 2m x 3m high stacked speakers, thumping out whatever suits the mood.
Being an ex DJ, I can’t help but want to play some tracks through their massive setup.

We were met by a lovely lady who showed us to our room. Nice and quiet room away from the busy traffic heading to Khao Yai National Park.

Local Attractions
There was coffee and dinner at the overdose bar and cafe, plus a quick shop for some last-minute supplies.
The ATVs “s looked like fun.
Quick drive to find parking for tomorrow and then up for a look at Nong Rong Waterfall.

Back to the hotel for some r&r. Ready for the 4 am wake up.
Finisher
Turns out we didn’t need all that gear. It was an 80% road race, with plenty of water stations.
Enjoyed the run, a great event and well organized.
Update on who won to follow.
