Our objective: The
HKU Marathon Team is the first local university marathon team to
participate in the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon. Its objective
is to encourage members of The University of Hong Kong to participate in
the sport of running. Running is a sport that trains not only one's
physical fitness but also one's mind, particularly for endurance and
perseverance.
Since 2006, over 12,500 members of the University have joined the HKU Marathon Team. The Team has won
the “Most Supportive Group Award” of the Standard Chartered Hong Kong
Marathon for the past eleven years.
"This
demonstrates the unity, dedication and spirit that we all share in the
HKU family" Professor Lap-Chee Tsui
The 14th Vice-Chancellor
"The HKU
Marathon Team represents the unity within the University family,
bringing together students, alumni, staff, families and friends."
Professor S P Chow Former
Pro-Vice-Chancellor
"There are
three characteristics commonly found in a leader: a great mind, a fit
body and the ability to work in a team. HKU represents the best of
minds, with its graduates, staff and students."
Professor Paul Cheung Chairman of HKU Marathon Team
Organising Committee
