Snoopy Run 2019 Sharing by Steven Yiu (FS15/16, Hong Kong Baptist University) 

 

Snoopy and friends – a set of lovely character which is one of the irreplaceable cartoon that accompanied us during our childhood. This year, the first and ever Snoopy Run is organized in Hong Kong and the Fung Scholars Hong Kong Chapter has joined the race on 3rd November 2019.  

 

Collaborated with society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA), this race promotes the importance of animal welfares which invites pet owners to run along with their beloved pets in a running setting. The race is more targeting on young children and families with the choice of 2km and 5km.  

 

All of the 4 Fung Scholars joined the 5km run while we all embraced the lovely and warm weather in a perfect harbor-side running track in Sunny Bay, which is the best time to do some outdoor running in the fall season. Upon finishing the race, we also saw Snoopy greeting us at the finish line with everyone full of laughter after a sweating exercise time together.  

 

Running could be an individual sport, but it is always good to run along with peers and see ourselves improving time to time. Happy running!
