The Next Race...


Suddenly the question for me (and a lot of my friends) is, "What is the next race?"


What is the next challenge? Where are we going next? What distance will this one be?


So the answer for me is easy- Trailwalker. 100km up and down mountains in the New Territories of Hong Kong. It's for a good cause. I'm actually going to raise some funds, and somehow I found a team that is looking to do it in 20 hours. Most people aim to complete their first Trailwalker in under 24 hours, but again, moderation is not my forte. It's a terrible, terrible idea and my body is going to hurt for days afterwards, but I feel like it's one of those quintessential HK things that you have to do.


But then what?


I've got a 15km reservoir race on Dec 6th. I've tentatively signed up for Atacama. My Trail Trouble partner wants to do a race in Australia. I think I should probably try a marathon, and my two best friends in HK are addicted to biking and triathlons. There's a crazy Action Asia adventure race in December. Maybe I should learn to orienteer?


Or maybe it's time to take a nap... hmm, that sounds least likely of all.
