Cycling and Running in Hua Hin
Running
The Hua Hin Hash House
Harriers or H2H3 are the primary running club in town.
Membership has grown over the years and they now hold
regular runs along a number of trails around the Hua Hin,
Cha-am and Pranburi area.
"The
H2H3 is a group of international fools who get a lot of
enjoyment out of runing or walking around in jungles,
mountains, beaches and sometimes highways in search of the
end of the run and some cold beer and camaraderie."
More information, updates
and schedules can be found on their website:

For those that like to run
alone nothing beats an early morning jog along the beach
from Hua Hin center to Wat Khao Takiab. The distance is
around 7 kilometers and you can take a Songtaew (green
public bus) back into town for ten baht.
Cycling
There is also a local Hua
Hin cycling club called the Hua Cha Hash Pedalers (HCHP), a
similar sort of thing but on bicycles, they meet up to take
on trails and courses around the area.
A couple of good shops
selling bicycles can be found on Petchkasem Road and nothing
beats getting out into the open country on two wheels. Just
be cautious of the traffic, cyclists are often ignored on
the roads of Thailand.
