Chiang Mai Marathon

天亮后的风景绝佳，城市很美，清迈给我的感觉非常放松，一切从前看来高大上的东西，和人都非常亲近，比如庙宇，比如古迹。马拉松的完赛服很好看，还有大象的名次奖杯，当然与我无缘。跑步时气温不冷不热，非常适宜。 但组织工作上不太积极，从始至终没发过邮件给我。今天是跑完第五天了，我不知道成绩证书和照片在哪里下载或者购买。

我一个外国人，不跑个全马不是太不划算了吗？哈哈哈.

It's very exciting and Wonderful race! Because it's night, we can't receive cheers from citizens, but I hope the volunteers at the water fountain will cheer us on. Then you can have more strength

Fantastic event, really well organised, couldn’t have asked for better. Lots of water stations too so really didn’t need my hydration bladder!

Third marathon completed and best time yet! Thank you Chiang Mai, you were awesome!

It was well organised, plenty of toilets at the start. Lots of water stations on route, and pacers for whatever time you were trying to do. Food and drinks at the finish, and transport back to Chiang Mai. The only complaint I would have, as an older runner,I am 73 and no recognition for 70 and up, the age group only went to 60 and up.

It was a mostly flat course, with a bit of elevation about 2K out from the finish.

This was a great route, very scenic, well organized. For some reason, my result didn't appear right after the race and I was worried my chip had malfunctioned. But an hour or two later it appeared and all was good.

Great experience, beautiful 42KM track, remarkable organisation. We started the race at 3:00 AM from the Chiang Mai city. Lots of spectators to cheer you up along the way and great friendly atmosphere all the way. Can't wait to run it again in 2023!

Brilliant race. Well organised and great location for a vacation

I ran in the Half Marathon, it was all well organised , plenty of toilets at the start, and places to warm up. On the Route there were plenty of water stations, and at the end some food and a free shuttle back to Chiang Mai. The only thing I was disappointed with was , there were prizes for the first five in age groups, but only up to 50+. I am 72 and finished 17 out of 186 runners over 50 in a time of 1.50.53. So there was no recognition for older runners. I and some other runners were competing against against runners, that in my case could be 22 years younger.

It was a flat course ,and well marked and Marshalled..

Schlechte Markierung der Rennstrecke. Die ersten 10km sind langweilig mit wenig Richtungswechsel. Ab km 17 ist die Beleuchtung so schlecht oder nicht vorhanden (so richtig finster)so dass ich das Renntempo Drosseln musste um sicher weiterzulaufen. Schade um den tollen Event, die Organisation war ansonsten gut. Es wurden von mir 157 Foto gemacht wärend des Rennens von RunThai.(kostenpflichtig) Danke

Schnelle Zeiten möglich mit weinig Höhenunterschied.

Percorso molto pianeggiante so corre di notte con una temperatura perfetta di 20 gradi. Ottima organizzazione sia per il ritiro pacco gara, che per il trasporto alla fine della gara e ristoro a fine gara come in un ristorante

I flew into Chiangmai from Singapore on Friday afternoon before the Sunday Marathon, during the 2018 Christmas holiday period. On arrival, the Race Pack collection at Tha Phae Gate was smooth & well organised. The Full Marathon was supposed to start at 4am on Sunday but was brought forward to 1am, due to runners' feedback on traffic & safety issues. There were also a record number of FM & HM runners that year. There was heavy security at the Tha Phae Gate Start Point with electronic gantry for FM runners. Night time temperature was 17-20°C & humidity 70%. The course was mostly flat & on roadway. It looped around the Old City moat to run pass Chiangmai Hospital, the western side of the Airport, and cruised south to make 3 U-turns & one circus at the Zoo & Night Safari area before charting North & back to finish at the Tha Phae Gate. Besides a girls' dance group at 28km & a lion dance at Start Point, cheer support was scarce in the middle of the night. Only a few distance markers were prominently displayed but water stations & first aid stations were regular. There were only three isotonic drinks stations & three banana fruit stations throughout the course. There was a health screening station, drinks stands & food stalls for a hearty breakfast at the finish point of the marathon. Distance measurements were accurate for the FM which I ran in, but I was told that many runners charted only 9.4km in the "Mini Marathon" & many were ebullient with their PBs for the 10km run. Despite its minor imperfections, I had a great time in Chiangmai running this marathon. The weather was perfect and Thai people were friendly, gracious & helpful. I made new friends & visited Doi Suthep on Saturday. I also had a recovery trek at Doi Inthanon National Park during Christmas after the marathon.

The Thai people were friendly & gracious and I made some friends during my Christmas holidays there.

Due to the cooling climate, the run was very enjoyable and the main factor is because the route was very flat, but beautiful view of sun rise as you run.

Main reason was the route, very flat. Hence a run of 21 or 42km is reasonable.

The route was great, food was great. I had so much fun in there. I want to participate this event nest year.

The arrangement was really good.during and after the race all the staffs and volunteers did their best support to the runners.

The race pack collection went smoothly. The route are excellent, its flat and the traffic was well control. The instruction and announcement are clear to understand. The weather was excellent, my first race experience running in a cold weather (17 celcius) and it was great. Overall, no doubt its a small city but internationally recognize and hope that I will get the opportunity to come back next year. Bravo.

it was a great route and race too. I keep my pace all the way and finish strong (without injury). Credit to the weather that doesn't make me feel tired.
