Where did I jog? - Pattani.

New post article regarding where I did my jog and traveling on foot in new town or places. It is not about racing event, just a sightseeing on the run/jog passing places of interest.

By running I could explore more into local area and seeing their daily activities especially early morning. There is no rules. no distance, no route and no pace setup. Just bring some cash in-case I lost and back with cab. I jog and stop any interesting place to re-fill, chat or answer nature-call - It is run free.

I did number of sight-running before such as Brastagi@Indonesia, Hatyai@Thailand, KotaKinabalu@Sabah, KelanaJaya@PetalingJaya, Brinchang@CameronHighland, Kuah@Langkawi, Songkhla@Thailand eemm.. can't remember but those not recorded. I will start with Pattani.
