My Story
On 14th of April a team of 20 CVC Asia Pacific employees, family members and friends will be taking on a 10km Fearless Dragon team race in Hong Kong. The course on which we will be competing against other teams is a fairly challenging route in Sai Kung (New Territories), more akin to a trail rather than a road race.
To make sure we can all make it across the finish line, we have been training weekly with running coaches from Run Our City - a social enterprise focused on inspiring teenagers (particularly from challenging backgrounds) to train for distance running by providing free classes. These classes are funded by organizing races like Fearless Dragon and conducting training for corporates, which our team had the first-hand experience of. The time has now come to put these newly-acquired distance running skills to test...
We are running to raise funding for Mother’s choice – a Hong Kong charity serving children without families through providing temporary care (child care home for developing babies and children with special needs) and fostering services, as well as support pregnant teenagers and education workshops to reduce crisis pregnancy among youth. We hope to raise over HKD 50,000 for this worthy cause, and are asking for your support to make this happen!
