Introduction

Inspired by the Barkley Marathons, one of the most challenging ultra trail races in the world, Trailblazer will organize its first trail running event – CAN RUN 2018. We have incorporated some of the Barkley Marathons’ features into the CAN RUN, such as collecting book pages, having no time chips, etc. As a continuation of the Charity Premiere “Where Dreams Go To Die – Gary Robbins and the Barkley Marathons”, we will continue to support Christian Zheng Sheng College through this trail running event. The idea of “CAN RUN” originated from the food banks on the island at Zheng Sheng College where “CAN food” is required to feed their students and staff under extreme weather conditions, when no public transportation is available to replenish food supply. The word “CAN” represents both “CAN” food as well as Trailblazer’s belief that everybody “CAN” RUN!

Race Details

CAN RUN has 2 different routes, 4km & 18km. Similar to the Barkley Marathons, it is a race WITHOUT time chips. Each runner is required to carry a “CAN food” from the starting line, through the race and across the finish line. The can food will be donated to the food bank at Christian Zheng Sheng College. Apart from the can food, runners are also required to collect book pages at designated areas. At the finishing point, both the CAN food and book pages will be checked to mark the completion of the run. Prizes will be granted to the first 3 runners or groups of runners who meet the completion requirements. (The expiry date for the CAN food should be beyond Dec 2019)

CAN RUN是一項香港舉行的山跑賽，共2條賽道，分別有4公里及18公里，參照巴克利馬拉松，賽事並不採用計時晶片。CAN RUN賽事要求，包括每名參加者必須捐出1罐罐頭(最終捐贈與基督教正生書院食物銀行)，進行賽事時沿途攜帶(起點至終點)，及每隊必須在大會賽道的指定多個位置撕去及保留指定的書頁，全隊一同將罐頭及書頁帶到終點衝線完成，以大會最佳時間成功完成的頭3名/隊伍將分別成為該組別的冠、亞及季軍得主。(罐頭有效期必須在2019年12月以後)
