In December of 2021, my partner Hilary Matheson and I got the amazing opportunity to race (my first in 20 months!), tour and eat our way through Thailand. From the chaotic tuk-tuk rides in Bangkok to the lush, technical jungles of Chiang Mai Province - we had an absolute blast in a world that was just beginning to come back to life after being closed to travelers due to the pandemic. It was an amazing experience thanks to The Sports Authority and the good people at Thailand by UTMB.
The food, the trails, the culture, the people...I hope I did the experience and the country justice. Can't wait to visit again Thailand!
The upcoming 3rd edition of Doi Inthanon Thailand By UTMB will be an Asia Pacific Major with over 5,000 runners from 64 countries. The events will be held December 8-11, 2022.

[@affluentforager5704]

I love how you went out and found a really cool race and brought it to everyone that's not as mainstream and found a challenge. That's what running is about!

[@JamesBernardohk]

So cool to see Sebastien out there guiding the group! We did an amazing Chiang Mai multi day trail trip with him back in 2019. 🙌

[@Steve-vr6mq]

Seeing that Billy has posted a new Window Seat film is always a good notification. Another great film which captures a glimpse of the country, the brilliant race and the coming together of people and new friends so well is great.Thank you for sharing and well done to both of you for your races.

[@BillyYang]

Thank you Steve! 🙏🏼

[@johnseeley9316]

Nobody crosses a finish line better than Hillary Ann!!!! Another beautiful film Billy!

[@HilaryAnn]

Nobody was more relieved to see it, either 😆

[@GlennGabrielMedia]

So stoked to meet you there Billy! I’ll never forgot your 100 mile advice; the first 50 miles don’t be an idiot, the last 50 don’t be a wimp. Hope to cross paths again!

[@BillyYang]

Ah yes, that’s my friend JDF’s advice that I committed to memory. Short sweet to the point…glad you got through it and hope we meet again soon!

[@nberkel]

[@jimshoes2210]

Awesome Billy & Hillary, it looks like the pad thai is the go to next time we are there! Thank you for providing these awesome vlogs, podcasts & supporting the trail running world into what it’s becoming today love it so epic!

[@BillyYang]

Def a must! Thanks for this comment...we both enjoy the community and culture so!

[@silverdesk72]

Awesome film.

[@qcomberette]

Awesome video, it is pumping me up for my race at Doi Inthanon next week. Pad thai is great but next time you are up North try Khoa Soi.

[@ssirikhan]

Waiting your film so long after ThUTMB last year you joined. BTW, welcome to Thailand. 😊

[@VirtualTrailRunning]

Sweet! I want to do this run!

[@brynmorgan2007]

[@debasishsen9397]

[@adamtutterrow3472]

Still one of the only places I’d move to ❤

[@user-BAE091]

amazing Thailand my home

[@rmjames83]

Congrats guys!!! Awesome work!!!Thailand by UTMB is definitely a bucket list race for me-the bonus is that I don’t have to travel as far as you guys did-it’s a hop, skip & a jump for me living in Australia!!

[@BillyYang]

lucky you Rachael...and Australia's also high on my list. can't believe I haven't been down there yet!

[@rmjames83]

@@BillyYang u gotta come!!! Little biased but I love it here on the east coast of Australia (2hrs drive north of Sydney). We have everything really-rainforest (further north) to bush & everything in between!! Ran 12km yesterday along the beach walkways in my town yesterday & it was just beautiful-I just need to drive 20 mins & can hit the trails & ranges of the great divide. Hit me up on STRAVA if u ever want to pop by… Ultra trail Australia by UTMB is another on my list-hard but spectacular!! Highly recommend!!

[@aMaziJokeR]

Great video Billy! Can one ask for the names of the songs used in this video?

[@danieldarby5170]

I recommend CULTRA in Malaysia for a similar but unique experience.

[@BillyYang]

Malaysia is def on my list!

[@jasheek98]

Naomi and I want to see more food clips next time! 🍚

[@BillyYang]

Haha, of course - I'll plan to include more in the future like a good Asian :)

[@adampeterson1321]
