********Due to Covid19 causing disruptions, Lantau 2 Peaks will be postponed until early 2021. The new date will be confirmed soon.******

All participants who originally paid and entered the 2020 Lantau 2 Peaks will have their entry rolled over to the 2021 'early' edition (date coming) and receive a free entry in the 2020 Lantau 2 Peaks Virtual edition free of charge. Details will be emailed to all confirmed participants.

Dates of Lantau 2 Peaks VIRTUAL will be Oct 1 - 11, 2020.

Yup, we've gone virtual......11 days to choose a convenient day to knock this course off. Yes that means you must go there to run/hike/crawl if you have to and physically complete the full Lantau 2 Peaks course. Details on how to send us the proof of distance track coming shortly.

Working on full rules now and trying to not make this too complicated and in the spirit of the Lantau 2 Peaks die hard participants who know doing a stairmaster at home doesn't quite cut it like the physical pain of actually doing the real course. Not to mention trying to figure out your hydration plan as no water in Pak Kung Au (where cp2 located) so need to have enough water/fluids to get you over both Lantau Peak and Sunset Peak for another extra challenge. We think this will be harder than the actual race with check points!!!

Hydration - several ways as can rely on friends, but would kindly ask for them to only go to checkpoints and not along the course route as not in the spirit of the race. You could bring purification water tablets as a couple river creeks can refill water along the route, but must wait usually 30min before drinking water after tablets added, or bring a water filter (Lifestraw) or could detour at Ngong Ping near cp1 and go to Ngong Ping village to purchase enough drinks to get you over both Lantau/Sunset. (minimum 2L as recommend probably 2.5L - 3L minimum to get over both peaks). Don't worry about time as focus is on completing distance. Make sure you have extra flasks/bottles for filling up.

23km - Teams of 4, Teams of 2, Solo or 15km (Solo only).

All participants entered in L2P Virtual will receive a limited edition bandana together with e-bib and upon completion e-finish certificate. Limited edition bandana can be picked up at Action X Sheung Wan after email confirmation from organizer with full details.

Nominating a local NGO/charity shortly and will kindly ask all participants to support any way they can.

more to come.....

Thanks for the great feedback as almost 700 replied to our survey!!!!

EMAIL OUT TO PARTICIPANTS

Thanks for entering Lantau 2 Peaks as this email is too explain pack pick up and entry uploading details to all who entered both original race and virtual race.

1. Lantau 2 Peaks Virtual will take place anytime between October 1st and October 11th. You can do the course as many times as you wish, but please try your best to upload one file to us for each participant to make this not too difficult. Yes, we will accept if you upload 2 files if you decide to run the course a 2nd time (example 1 week later), but encourage this only if you or your team is really chasing a podium result in the category.

See the participation Bib example below that you need to email 1 photo of each participant to Action Asia Events as we’d like to make this year more fun by inserting your photos in the E-bib that you will also use for collecting your goodie bag. Please send us your photo to cs@actionasiaevents.com by Sept 25th.

3. We will send you back a designed bib with the photo(s) and bib numbers for you to have fun and share with your friends on Facebook or Instagram. When you share it, please use hashtag #Lantau2Peaks

7. When done with the virtual race, please submit your results (including ELAPSED TIME AND MOVING TIME) to:  (LINK TO BE EMAILED AFTER REGISTRATION)

8. Rules – as a virtual race difficult for us to enforce, but in terms of the spirit of the event, if you are going to have support teams/individuals helping you, please only give support at the 2 official checkpoints which are located near Ngong Ping and the Pak Kung Au. The results will be based on ELAPSED TIME. This means if you decide to walk to Ngong Ping to go get drinks and come back to join the course this time will be counted. Teams are too stay together the whole course.

9. Novotel – make a staycation out of this event with special offer only for L2P at https://www.actionasiaevents.com/assets/images/Events/2_Peaks/year_2020/Flyer%20for%20Action%20Asia%20Events%20-%20Novotel%20Citygate%20Hong%20Kong.pdf

10. Please plan your water / drink strategy before going out as some “elite” teams used 1 litre to Ngong Ping (where they went to village to refill) and 2.5 litres from Ngong Ping to the finish as no water at Pak Kung Au so think also about taking emergency water purification tablets or water filter with you as a few small creeks on trail and possibly carrying even more water.

Stay safe!!! Drink more water!!!
