Pong Yaeng Trail 100KM 2018

Pong Yaeng Trail 2018

Taking place in Chiang Mai, Mae Sai region.  The race base is at the famous attraction, Queen Sirikit Botanic Gardens.  This is about 30km from the Airport to reach.  I wanted to do a 100KM myself and was thinking about the ThaiUltra Marathon, which I missed doing 2 years ago and ended up doing a walk through because of the Thai King passed away.  This year unfortunately, they were also not able to organise the race due to some authority factors.  In the end I was in a cross road between PYT and the trail in Nan.  Thinking that I am just a newbie, I decided that PYT will be a safer choice because of its good reputation and also the elevation was not as much as Nan.  Also since I had already walked through the 50km of Thai Ultra Marathon, I thought that the landscape should be the same.
