Round the Island2013 Race Sunday April 21st
This is an annual ultra distance event of approx 64k, founded by former AVOHKer and longtime Hong Kong resident Tony Gover.Over the years the route has been modified and now is a figure "8" from the sitting out area at Wong Nai Chung Gap/Tai Tam Reservoir Road junction. The route follows catchwater's and country park paths around Hong Kong island with as short a distance as possible on main roads. "True Grit" runners cover the entire course themselves. There is also a "Whimp" category for pairs of runners who wish to share the distance or run it in relay fashion. This event features one of the more eclectic of our finisher T-shirts, every runner has their name printed on the shirt.
The start and finish is in the lower sitting out area between the public carpark and Sir Cecils Ride on Tai Tam Reservoir Road at Wong Nai Chung Gap. You choose your start time (the starts are every 15 mins from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m.) to allow you to finish between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. If you finish before 2 p.m., your time will be recorded as if you finished at 2 p.m.The finish, however, closes at 6 p.m. so that our volunteers can get home.We ask that you respect this time and if you are unable to finish by 6.00pm you withdraw from the event.
The course is marked with blue dots with three dots in a triangle at each junction
This event resembles a time trial and is not a race, runners are NOT permitted to use any mobile aid station.The following should be used as a guide to your time for TRUE GRIT - Marathon Time x 2If you compete as WHIMPS, the CHANGEOVER point is at the Start/Finish.
In ODD YEARS the route starts on the north side of the island and heads EASTWARDS, clockwise towards Mount Parker, Shek O and returns to the checkpoint via Tai Tam and Violet Hill.

好值得玩的比賽, 去年我挑戰失敗, 超左半小時, 其實之前自已只係一條友試過一次路, 沿途藍點指示好清楚, 再加上網上有心人(好似我都係在呢個forum睇到)影晒成條route, 基本上都唔驚蕩失. 而且過引在同一條路線, 一年順走, 一年逆走, 有心思的安排!! 有邊個報左揮揮手啦! :victory:我收左confirmation e mail la:lol.想問clockwise / anti clockwise好跑 d ne?上年上那個土地公灣d石級時，真係極痛苦 我都收左confirmation e mail :lol

跟著地下藍點走, 路口位都有三點前進指示的, 成條路不算太難找, 當然如果有時間試路會好好多! raccon_mama 發表於 2013-3-26 18:26 static/image/common/back.gif

raccon_mama, 如果真係跟唔到 d 藍點，唯有等後上既跑友到再跟住跑啦。我一早起步，相信大把人俾我跟 我是第一次參加RTI, 想問各位ching 幾點出發? 可否一起起步, 我無經驗我怕會迷路.....唔該 我呢兩日走晒兩個圈。大部份藍㸃大至上都易認。跑慣港島有優勢。有啲藍點已退色嚴重好難認。建議咪靠估，跟後上師兄再跑方為上策，為趕快少少走寃枉路唔值得呢。我哋跑得慢，所以6點開波！ 前日跑左細圈, 好似未重噴, 有d位真係幾淺色, 如果第一年玩, 時間係剛剛好果種 (大會個indicator , FM x 2, 真係幾準)同埋如果少走港島徑,試路一定好有幫助. 我都係好慢, 6:00start, 好驚唔知醒.希望明日唔好甘密雨, 要去試埋大圈. raccon_mama 發表於 2013-4-3 13:36 static/image/common/back.gif
