On a very hot and humid morning, 235 runners set off for the 3rd race of the 2025 AVOHK 5K Series held over Wan Chai Gap and Black’s Link.. The most difficult of the four races. There is a steep climb after the start, rugged terrain in the middle and 700m of downhill to the finish. Chong See Yeung made light work of the course and came home in a very fast 17.19, with Wong Kai Lok 2nd in 18.54 and Sebastian Cotton M35 3rd in 19.00. Hannah Bainbridge W45 led the ladies home again in 22.35 with Chan Suk Ting W35 2nd lady home in 23.28 and 3rd lady was Amie Shuttleworth W40 just behind in 23.29. Good turnout from the runners and some very impressive performances. A big thank to Race Director Freeman Lee and the AVOHK Committee for putting on a wonderful race. A special shout out and thanks to Vicent and the Medal presentation team.
Thank you to all the runners that took part in the 2025 Malcolm Phillips 5km age graded race on Sat 10th May 2025, especially those from AVOHK & HKLRRC.
This is a great way to remember our dear friend Malcolm a member of both running clubs who sadly passed away in 2006. It was a real bonus that Cindy Phillips, Malcolms lovely wife who was on hand to present the prizes, but also took part in this historic club race.
A big thank you to Race Directors, David Woo and Frank Riehm, who put on a wonderfully organized race and thank you to the many volunteers who assisted in making this race a success. Congratulations to Ladies Overall Winner Angel Lo and Men’s Overall Winner Nicholas Forde.
