Pattaya Marathon - Number Double One


Number 11th full marathon. Somehow the mojo isn't felt yet. Not the excitement that I felt when doing my first few. Perhaps I am still reeling from the tiredness of Sundown 100km. After all, I read somewhere that you need a day for every long km that you've completed in a marathon. In this case a 100 days and that will take me beyond Hari Raya!

The aftermath of Sundown Ultra marathon was very docile. Didn't do much running this week, instead prefering to cycle instead. Pooky was collecting lots of dust prior. Finally did a trip to Bukit Fraser last week and throwing in a mid week ride around Putrajaya this week. Nothing fancy, just to warm up these old legs.

Perhaps the excitement of Pattaya marathon will kick in tomorrow when I board the plane. Or when I touch down in the Land of Smiles. Or when I get a whiff of heavenly tom yam or pad thai. Note to myself, no tom yam the night before the race ya.

Still owe you the chronicles of my Phuket marathon. That will have to wait till I am back.

Let me try to enjoy this tom yam land marathon. Fingers crossed.
