What in the world am I doing?


Day 5:
Thongsala, Koh Phagnan, Thailand

So the posts have been a bit stream of consciousness lately but as far as what I have been physically doing for the last two days since I left Haad Rin and moved into Thongsala it pretty much amounts to one thing.

Training my ass off at the Muay Thai School.

Here's the breakdown of Wednesday and Thursday's activities:

8am: Breakfast
9:30am: Jog to the stadium
10:00am-12: Morning training session at the camp
12:00pm-12:30: Jog back to the bungalow
12:30pm-2:30pm: Lunch and rest time
2:30pm-3: Jog back to the camp
3:00pm-4: 1 hour run with the other boxers
4:00pm-6: Afternoon training at the camp
6:00pm-6:30: Jog back to the bungalow
6:30pm-9pm: Dinner and rest
9pm: Bed

Wash, rinse, repeat.

If you have done some martial arts in your life and you visit Thailand without training at a genuine Muay Thai School while you are here, then you are missing out on one of the most amazing experiences that the world has to offer.
Highly recommended and 9.5 on the bloke scale.
Booked a trip to Koh Tao for Sunday (the one rest day of the week) to dive on Sail Rock and two other spots I have dreamed about going to for the last few years, to say I am looking forward to this trip is like saying kid aren't adverse to Christmas and the Hamburglar does't mind a cheeseburger when he can get one.
