COVID UPDATE

Hong Kong still has strict pandemic/social restrictions in force and although restrictions have been mostly been lifted from large scale in-door gatherings, the government has advised us that they  continue to believe that small scale outdoor trail events are a especially high risk activity. Whilst we feel these policies are not consistent or measured, we believe the reward in bringing our community back together for our first in-person event in 3 years is worth the effort. We will continue to press the government for a more reasonable policy, but in the meantime, to receive our 599G exemption we must adhere to the following restrictions:
 

• Event size is reduced to 500 pax. 

• We will not be able to serve any food during the race but participants can bring their own.

• Participants must upload a PCR test no earlier than 48 hours prior to the race start (a link will be sent to you to upload a photo of your results).

• Participants must show a photo of negative RAT test at the race start.

• Participants must be fully vaccinated and only be 'blue code' and not have a temperature above 37.5c. You will have to sign a health declaration form.

• We will have wave starts.

This year, due to government restrictions, we will have 70% less participants than our usual event and our sponsorship revenue will be significantly impacted. Even though the cost of staging the event has similar fixed costs, we have maintained our registration fee (in fact we have lowered it). These restrictions are frustrating, but we feel after 3 years, its time to bring our community together and hope that this will be the final year of Covid restrictions. We appreciate your support and thank you to the whole MoonTrekker community who have helped keep this event special.
