Shek Kip Mei Prince Edward 4km Community Run

"FOODSPORT Community Run" is a series of Calorie Drive Street Running Programme organized by FOODSPORT; we will take you to run at different districts and routes, to feel the pulse of the city by running, and at the same time, rising for under-privileged groups in Hong Kong.

​This month's community run will guide you through the neighborhoods of Shek Kip Mei and Prince Edward. We'll begin by passing through the nostalgic ambiance of Nam Shan Estate, where time seems to rewind, allowing us to embrace the sentimental atmosphere. Along the way, we'll traverse the charming Sakura Tunnel, experiencing the blend of old and new, offering a glimpse into the passage of time and the continuity of life. Finally, we'll explore the Chinese-themed gardens of Yuen Po Street Bird Garden and the vibrant Flower Market, where we'll be enveloped in fragrant scents and a riot of colors, immersing ourselves in the vitality of the surrounding flora and fauna.
