About the Race

CM5 is to CM6, not as Robin is to Batman. As with every CM distance, the first hurdle is a 10km hike to the Hmong village (the HQ), situated at around 1400m above mean sea level. First time out from the HQ, using the steep trail to go up the Doi Pui summit (1600+m above mean sea level), you will be making a long circular route heading to Pa Nok Kok Village and back to the HQ again. Leaving the HQ for the second time, you will be heading South to Suan Prik Temple via The Last Man Standing Trail. Several sections are steep and technical so do exercise caution. An extra water station is at the halfway point and available for both outwards and returns directions. Relatively short, and the last out-and-back loop is to Hauy Kaew Waterfall. Situated at around 5 minutes drive from the City, this aid station is convenient for your support to meet and make sure you carry on with the race. One last climb from Hauy Kaew Waterfall to the HQ, and it will be downhill from there - literally.
