Participants are welcome to tackle this challenge solo or as a team of two. The 51km course covers three country parks on South Lantau. 90% will be on trails, and there is a cumulative elevation gain of 2,600 meters. The event starts and ends in Discovery Bay.
The Explorer run (15km) will start with the climb of the Lo Fu Tau (Tiger head, 450m) before heading to Silvermine beach (Mui Wo) and back to Discovery Bay via single tracks, mostly on trails.
This will be a great event for Circuit25-ers. Take part in the whole 50k run or join the challenge with another member and take on 25k each. You can even do the shorter solo distance of 15k. Whatever you decide to do, it'll be a challenge!
Bonus: If you wear your T-shirt to the event, take a picture and email us the proof. We will then credit your account with one free token. So head on over to class, train and see you on Lantau.
