About this route

The city-centre loop that every Bangkok runner knows. Wide paths, plenty of shade, water fountains and a friendly crowd of expats, locals and serious interval runners doing repeats around the 2.5km oval. Get there before the tropical heat peaks and you'll understand why it's the beating heart of the city's running scene.
