Samui Festival Marathon & Trail 15th September 2019

Samui Festival Marathon & Trail 15th September 2019

It's on again, the Samui Festival Marathon & Trail 15th September 2019. This must be the 4th edition. I only missed the fist time, 3 years ago, when I was not on the island. 

Just like last year, I'm planning to run the full marathon. Unfortunately I got injured fairly early into my training program and couldn't participate in the full marathon. I was lucky enough to be able to participate in the 10km event.

This year I started an 18 week training program just two days ago. Crossing my fingers I stay healthy and in one piece for the 15th September. My goal is to run as close to a 3 hours 30 minutes time. Am looking forward to it!

Start of the 10km race last year

This is a big event each year. Well organized and with plenty of other activities, like concerts during a full week surrounding the running events.

Hope to see you at this event. I will update this blog as soon as information with more details will become available. See you on the 15th September!

Please do 'like' my Koh Samui blog Facebook page and enjoy the beaches around the island or in front of your hotel or resort and get some well deserved rest and a break.

If you're done resting or need something else to do, there's plenty of things on offer on and around Koh Samui, you can go snorkeling or diving or take a dive course.

You can also enjoy some of the trips I recommend, like a half day gourmet lunch and snorkeling trip at the Southern part of Koh Samui or a photography trip where you get to see the most photo genetic spots on the island or go for a drinks tasting tour if you like a tipple or two.

You may also opt for a very special dinner experience at The Thai Experience. Behind closed doors, reservation only and a very enjoyable and well worthwhile way of spending an evening on Samui. Authentic Thai food and a great atmosphere. Can highly recommend this experience.

Contact me for more detailed information on any of the options mentioned.
