FRC - Hong Kong Chapter:
Meeting location:
Rootdown, Shop 16-19 G/F, Two Artlane, 1 Chung Ching St, Sai Ying Pun
Run location (current as of 2025/10/6):
Begin at Rootdown coffee shop, run along the Victoria Harbour, via Shun Tak Centre, ending at Star Ferry terminal/AXA Wheel. We will run/loop back to our meeting point at Rootdown.
We typically run for 30 minutes (easy/social/chatty pace), target 5K, with pre- and post-run stretch (10 minutes), then (optional) snack/coffee nearby (45~60 minutes). You may join late, and you are welcome to join just for coffee/networking.
Easy pace:
You are NOT required/expected to be an experienced runner. The primary purpose of FRC is networking, not training or engaging in an intense workout/training. We have different runners who run at different paces. You are also not required to be a founder/entrepreneur - open to everyone with an interest.
Bags:
You may store bags/water at the meeting location. FRC will ensure that your bags are stored at a safe place.
We run regardless of weather (eg, rain, Typhoon signal 3 or below), unless specifically noted as 'cancelled' on this post.
Feel free to cancel/no-show anytime before the run.
