The Angkor Wat International Half Marathon and Bike Race is only 6 months away. Time to start training!
For those of you who like the idea of exercise but dislike its manifestation, there are also 10 and 5k races and, even better, a 50k bike rally! (The last is my chosen event.)
If the name alone doesn't convince you, check out the maps! You get to do athletic crap at Angkor Wat! How cool is that?
Of course, sane people would say, "I could go to Angkor Wat and *not* overexert myself at 13 latitude." To you people I have no coherent response.

Hello,
I just want to leave a quick comment to tell you that I received an invitation today from the Peace Corps to serve in Cambodia. Peacecorpsjournals.com points to your blog, which sure makes volunteering in Cambodia seem fascinating and promising. Right now, I'm very inclined to accept the invite. Thanks very much for keeping this blog – it is really very inspiring.
Hey! Welcome to the Peace Corps Cambodia family! You should accept that invitation if you haven't already.
I don't want to leave too rosy of an impression: I usually try not to mention the frequent boredom and occasional gastrointestinal issues because....those are bummers to read about and I don't want my mom to worry. But I'm sure that you can guess from my advice to accept the invitation: this is your chance to have a unique experience, and I'd say the good things outweigh the difficult ones by quite a lot.
See you in July!
