Monkey Run # 19 Testimonial:
The Korat Outstation Run

Penny Drops,

  Sir Spaghetti Head here (Sir – only because of having 500 plus runs with the Pattaya H3)! I just wanted to take a little of your time to let you know all of the Monkey Hashers arrived back in Pattaya safely around the 2:30 timeframe. Of course, we continued at the Thistle Bar until late into the night!

  On behalf of all Monkey Hashers who attended this weekends festivities, I would like to say a “sincere thank you” to you, your family, employee’s, and local community friends who allowed this great weekend to take place. The tremendous effort put forth was simply amazing! It was an outstanding effort by everyone who had anything to do with making it happen and/or causing it to run without a single hitch or glitch!

  The first part of the trail reminded me of running “ultra’s” back in the U.S. many years ago! The beautiful mountain scenery, cool shady areas, and groomed trails were a pleasure to run on and enjoy! The effort to find them and join them together is truly a dedication to “hard work and perfection”! It reflects upon what I was taught many years ago – “never settle for anything but the best”! It was truly the “best Monkey Run, and superior to many many other Hash runs” that I have done over the years. Everyone’s efforts were greatly appreciated!

  Now to the food and accommodations: The chef must be commended for his “5 star” efforts! Food fit for a “king” and enough for an army! Wow! I’ve gained 3-5 pounds just thinking about it again! The job of finding accommodations for 30 plus individual’s (without extensive transportation requirements) was amazing if not magical! Communication, coordination, and the dedication to “make it happen” – “made it happen”!

  It was my since pleasure to assist you (what little I did) with the great breakfast which you provided on Sunday morning! Once again – “5 star and enough for an army”! Everyone departed with a full stomach and a happy smile on their face! Most slept on the way back to Pattaya – the others, just continued “down – downing” the beers!

  Please past our “highest praise and sincere thank you” to everyone, once again!
