Looking back at race week in Chiang Mai, one of the highlights was the 3km warm-up run on the Friday night before the big races. Starting from the Chiang Mai PAO Park race village, it was the perfect way to shake out the legs, soak up the atmosphere, and kickstart an unforgettable weekend of trail racing.
Runners collected their race T-shirts and BIBs, and after a short but energetic loop, crossed the finish line to claim a warm-up run medal—a fun teaser before the main event.
A huge shoutout to Zenone Trekking Poles for kitting out our team with their ultra-light race T-shirts featuring Everyday Athlete branding and the South African flag. It was great to represent SA on the trails of Thailand!
Looking back, this run was more than just a shakeout—it was a moment to connect, celebrate, and build excitement before tackling the mountains. Can’t wait to do it all again! If you are keen to join us in 2025 checkout this years packages here!
