Koh Samui marathon, 21st December 2014

At last the marathon will be back on Koh Samui, but I won't be in town! As a very enthusiastic Samui runner, that hurts! That Sunday I will arrive back home after a 3 week stay in Moalboal in the Philippines.

The two distances on offer are a 10.5km and a full marathon at 42.195km. Even if I would be on Samui, I could only train for the 10.5km distance.
