Staff members from the MTR train system in Hong Kong took part in the annual Green Power Hike to help raise awareness about environmental issues and sustainable living. This was the 8th annual Green Power Hike.
Participants ran from the Peak down to Big Wave Bay and Tai Tam, racing against the clock and other teams. MTR staff won the championship for the 10km Corporation/ Organization Cup. A second team also managed to place in the race as second runners up. 70 members of the MTR staff were also on hand as volunteers to make sure the event ran easy and smoothly and to control the crowds. Green Power will use funds raised at the race for education purposes and to raise awareness about environmental protection.
To follow the route that the runners took, or to find out more about Green Power, Holiday Rental Web suggests booking a hotel in Hong Kong.
