Following the Standard Chartered Marathon, another large-scale event "Oxfam Trailwalker" will be held from 24th to 26th of this month. Deputy Financial Secretary Wong Wai-lun, who has more than 30 years of experience in participating in the event, will provide participants with tips on how to enjoy the race.
Huang Weilun said that after the event was suspended for 3 years, it is very exciting to resume it now. At the same time, it brought back a lot of memories for him. He recalled that he first participated in this hiking fundraising event in 1991, and continued to be a Trailwalker for the next few years. Participated in and volunteered for many years, responsible for checkpoints and event safety related work.
He said that Trailwalker is not only a challenge to him, but also a great test of friendship.
Behind the struggle for results, how to successfully complete the entire event with teammates is the "life homework" of every teammate.
He explained that the Trailwalker is completely different from the marathon. It is not a one-man race. Instead, it requires four teammates to cooperate with each other and play a team spirit. The whole team is required to complete the entire section together, which emphasizes tolerance, tacit understanding, unity and sacrifice.
He described that everyone crossed the finish line at the same time and raised their arms. This common experience must be unforgettable for life, and teammates become lifelong friends in minutes.
As for the competition strategy?
Huang Weilun pointed out that there are already a large number of "lazy bags" in the market, so I won't repeat them.
He suggested that the participants enjoy the competition process. No matter how hard the journey is, they will find that Hong Kong is actually very beautiful, because there are many buildings in the urban area, but green water and green mountains are often nearby.
In addition to concentrating on the competition, the contestants may wish to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the road, with a panoramic view of mountains, coasts, jungles, and streams.
