Thailand has always been our personal place to run. The friendly runners, scenic route, exotic culture and the awesome hospitality always make us wanna return to The Land of Thousand Smiles. We salute The Thailand Tourism of Thailand (TAT) for taking a step forward to promote running and compiled a list of the 5 most outstanding running events that you should mark on your 2014 calendar!
We got the official " Marathons Throughout Thailand 2014" booklet, complete with a DVD at the Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore early this month. Yup! They even gave us the official mascot key chain. Cute, eh?

If you are looking for something longer than a marathon, there is the 50km anmd 100km off road Thailand ultramarathon (www.thailandultramarathon.com) in the far north (Mae Hong Son province) on October 25. It goes through beautiful forest and jungle, 4 remote hill tribe villages, and is in a beautiful area, with limestone cliffs and caves :)
