Translantau By UTMB

The race doesn't happen without you. 🙏

Behind every runner who crosses the finish line at TransLantau by UTMB, there are dozens of volunteers who made it possible — at checkpoints in the dark, on exposed ridgelines at dawn, cheering on exhausted runners in the final kilometres.

We're looking for volunteers for race weekend: November 13–15, 2026.

What you'll do:
✅ Man checkpoints and aid stations
✅ Support runners with food, drinks, and encouragement
✅ Help with logistics, course marking, and finish line management

What you'll get:
🎽 Official volunteer kit
🍜 Meals and refreshments during your shift
🏅 Front-row access to one of Hong Kong's greatest sporting events
🤝 A team of like-minded people who love trail running

No running required. Just a big heart and a willingness to be part of something special.

Sign up → translantau.utmb.world

沒有你，比賽無法舉行。🙏

在每一位越過飛越大嶼 by UTMB 終點線的跑者背後，都有數十名義工——他們在黑暗中守在補給站、在黎明時分的露天山脊上、在最後幾公里為筋疲力竭的跑者打氣。

我們正在招募比賽週末的義工：2026年11月13至15日。

你的工作：
✅ 駐守補給站及醫療站
✅ 為跑者提供食物、飲品和鼓勵
✅ 協助後勤、標記路線及終點線管理

你可以獲得：
🎽 官方義工裝備
🍜 當值期間的餐飲
🏅 近距離觀賞香港最精彩體育盛事的機會
🤝 一群熱愛越野跑的同路人

不需要參賽，只需一顆熱忱的心和願意成為特別體驗一部分的決心。

It's Saturday. Your long run is calling.

Every kilometre you bank this weekend is a kilometre you'll spend on Lantau. TL100 is 104 km with 4,500 m+ of climbing, started at 19:30 and run deep into the night — so the work you do now, in the heat and on tired legs, is exactly the work that carries you to the Mui Wo finish.

A simple summer rule: make one weekend run long, one run hilly. Don't chase pace in this humidity — chase time on feet and vertical metres. Practise eating on the move. Practise the kit you'll actually carry in November.

You don't have to be fast. You have to be ready.

Where are you running today? Drop it in the comments.

今日星期六,你嘅長課喺度叫緊你。

呢個週末你跑嘅每一公里,都係為大嶼山儲落嚟嘅本錢。TL100 全長 104 公里、累計爬升超過 4,500 米,晚上 7 點半起步,一路跑入深夜——即係話你而家喺酷熱同攰腳之下做嘅訓練,正正就係帶你去到梅窩終點嘅功課。

夏天訓練一條簡單法則:一個週末跑一次長課、跑一次斜路。喺呢種濕度之下唔好追速度,要追嘅係腳上時間同爬升米數。練習一邊郁一邊食嘢,練習你 11 月真正會帶嘅裝備。

你唔需要好快,但你需要準備好。

今日你喺邊度跑?留言話我哋知。

#週末長課 #越野跑

4 months to go. The work is building. ⏱️

Race weekend — November 13–15, 2026 — is four months away. If you've been training, you're in your build phase now: longer runs, more vert, sharper focus. The base is there. Now you load it.

The trails are ready for you. Are you ready for them? 🏔️

距離比賽只剩四個月。訓練的成果正在積累。⏱️

比賽週末——2026 年 11 月 13 至 15 日——就在四個月後。如果你已經在訓練，你現在正處於強化期：更長的長跑、更多爬升、更清晰的目標。基礎已經打好，現在是加大強度的時候。

山徑已經準備好迎接你。你準備好了嗎？🏔️

Photographers set 4am alarms for this light. Runners earn it. 🌅

You leave Mui Wo on Friday night and climb into the dark. Then, somewhere on the high ridges, the sky turns — a thin grey line over the South China Sea, then peach, then the whole island igniting beneath your feet. Lantau Peak catches the first sun. The reservoirs run silver. Tai O sleeps on in the mist.

You will have run all night to stand there. That is the trade. That is the race.

104 km · 4,500 m+ · one island · one unforgettable sunrise.
Friday 13 November 2026 · 19:30 · Mui Wo.

TL100 is open. 👇 Tag the runner who needs to see this sunrise.

攝影師肯凌晨四點起身,就係為咗呢種光線。跑手,就靠雙腳去贏返嚟。🌅

週五夜晚由梅窩出發,喺黑暗中爬升。然後喺高處嘅山脊上,天色開始變——南海上先出現一條灰白嘅線,跟住係蜜桃色,然後成個島喺你腳下亮起。鳳凰山接住第一道陽光,水塘變成銀色,大澳仲喺霧入面瞓緊。

你要跑足一整晚,先可以企喺嗰度。呢個就係交易,呢個就係比賽。

104 公里 · 累計爬升 4,500 米+ · 一個島 · 一個畢生難忘嘅日出。

27 hours. 4,500m+. The cutoff isn't your friend. ⏱️

Let's talk math. 104km in 27 hours is a 15:35/km average — which sounds civilised until you remember 4,500m+ of vertical and a 19:30 start that puts the hardest climbs in the dark.

The runners who finish TL100 don't out-run the cutoff. They out-think it. Three things separate the buckle from the DNF:

1. Bank time before Tai O (km ~45). The first 45km hold the most runnable terrain. Get to the Tai O checkpoint with a 90-minute buffer or the back half will eat you.

2. Respect the Sham Wat → Ngong Ping climb at night. 800m+ of climbing back up to the Big Buddha plateau, in the dark, on tired quads. The longest section on the course. This is where races are won and lost. Power-hike with intent — don't bleed time here.

3. The final 30km are not a victory lap. The course saves a sting for the end. Eat earlier than feels reasonable. Hydrate before you're thirsty. Manage your feet at every checkpoint.

If your training week has a long back-to-back and a vert-loaded hike, you're already on the right page. If it doesn't — you have 22 weeks. Start now.

📍 Friday 13 November 2026, 19:30 · translantau.utmb.world

27小時。4,500米+。關門時間不是你的朋友。⏱️

先談數字。104公里在27小時內完成，平均配速是每公里15分35秒 — 聽起來輕鬆，直到你想起4,500米+的爬升和19:30的起跑時間 — 最難的爬升全在黑夜中。

完成TL100的跑者不是跑贏關門時間，而是用腦贏。三件事決定你拿到完賽扣還是DNF：

1. 在大澳之前儲時間（約第45公里）。首45公里是賽道上最能跑的路段。到達大澳補給站時必須有90分鐘的緩衝，否則後半段會吃掉你。

2. 尊重夜間的深屈 → 昂坪爬升。在疲倦的雙腿上、在黑暗中，800米+爬升回到大佛高原。這是賽道上最長的路段。比賽的勝負就在這裡。有目的地快步行 — 不要在這裡浪費時間。

3. 最後30公里不是凱旋圈。賽道在尾段藏了一根刺。比你覺得需要的更早進食。在口渴之前補水。每個補給站都檢查你的雙腳。

如果你的訓練週包含一場長距離背靠背和一次大爬升的山行，你已經走在正軌上。如果沒有 — 還有22週。從現在開始。

3 Running Stones. One of Asia's most beautiful 100Ks. Spots are going. 🪨

If Chamonix is on your list — and let's be honest, it's on every ultra runner's list — TransLantau100 is one of the most accessible 100K bibs in the UTMB World Series:

🪨 3 Running Stones for the UTMB Mont-Blanc lottery
🌏 A flight, not a pilgrimage — HKG is one of Asia's most-connected airports
🏝️ A course you'll actually remember — Tai O, Big Buddha, Lantau Peak (934m), Po Lin Monastery
🏁 A finish line on a beach in Mui Wo. Beer. Noodles. The sea.

3粒Running Stones。亞洲最美的100公里賽事之一。名額越來越少。🪨

如果霞慕尼在你的目標清單上 — 老實說，每位超馬跑者的清單上都有 — 飛越大嶼100是UTMB世界系列賽中最易達的100公里參賽名額之一：

🪨 3粒Running Stones — 用於UTMB勃朗峰抽籤
🌏 一程航班，而不是朝聖之旅 — 香港國際機場是亞洲航線最密集的機場之一
🏝️ 一條你會真正記住的賽道 — 大澳、大佛、鳳凰山（934米）、寶蓮禪寺

Train smart for November. ☀️

Hong Kong in November is warm. The humidity lingers. And Lantau doesn't let you forget it.

Whether you're targeting the TL100, TL50, TL25 or TL15, your body needs to be ready for the conditions — not just the distance. Here's how to prepare:

🌡️ Heat acclimatisation — Train in the heat of the day at least once a week. Let your body adapt.
💧 Hydration strategy — Start hydrating the day before long efforts. Electrolytes matter as much as water.
🌅 Early morning long runs — Replicate race conditions: early starts, humid air, rising temperatures.
⏱️ Pacing in heat — Your pace in warm conditions should be slower than you think. Train for effort, not pace.
🧴 Sun protection — Arm sleeves, cap, SPF. Non-negotiable for a November race on exposed ridgelines.

5 months to train. Start building now.

為11月做好準備，訓練要夠聰明。☀️

香港11月依然炎熱，濕度高企，大嶼山不會讓你輕易忘記這一點。

無論你的目標是TL100、TL50、TL25還是TL15，你的身體不只要準備好應付距離，更要準備好應付當地的環境條件。以下是準備方法：

🌡️ 熱適應訓練——每週至少一次在最熱的時段練跑，讓身體慢慢適應。
💧 補水策略——在長課前一天已開始補水，電解質與水分同樣重要。
🌅 清晨長跑——模擬比賽狀態：早起出發、濕熱空氣、氣溫逐漸上升。
⏱️ 熱天配速——在炎熱環境下，你的配速應該比你預期的慢。以努力程度而非配速來訓練。
🧴 防曬保護——袖套、帽子、防曬霜。在露天山脊上參加11月比賽，這是必備裝備。

The TL100 night section: what you need. 🌙

The TransLantau by UTMB TL100 starts at 19:30 on Friday November 13 — and for many runners, the first hours will be spent in the dark. Ridge running at altitude in the small hours of the morning is one of the most memorable parts of the race. It is also one that demands the right gear.

Here's your night section checklist:
→ Headlamp: minimum 300 lumens — 400+ recommended for technical terrain
→ Spare battery or backup light: mandatory kit
→ Reflective vest or strips for visibility on shared paths
→ Warm mid-layer for the exposed ridges — temperature drops fast after midnight
→ Know your mandatory kit list in full at translantau.utmb.world

The dark is part of the adventure. Be ready for it. 🔦

TL100 夜間路段：你需要嘅裝備。🌙

飛越大嶼 TransLantau by UTMB TL100 在 11 月 13 日（週五）晚上 19:30 起跑——對於不少跑手而言，頭幾個小時將在黑暗中度過。凌晨時分在高海拔山脊奔跑，係比賽中最令人難忘嘅環節之一。同時，也係最需要正確裝備的環節。

以下係你嘅夜間路段裝備清單：
→ 頭燈：最低 300 流明——在技術性地形上建議選用 400 流明以上
→ 備用電池或備用燈：強制隨身裝備
→ 反光背心或反光條：確保在共用路段嘅能見度
→ 暖身中間層：用於暴露山脊路段——午夜後氣溫急降
→ 完整強制裝備清單：translantau.utmb.world

黑暗係冒險嘅一部分。做好準備迎接它。🔦

Most cities have parks. Hong Kong has mountains. 🌿

Ask any trail runner who's visited Hong Kong and they'll tell you the same thing: they didn't expect this.

Within 45 minutes of Central, you can be on a ridgeline with the South China Sea stretching to the horizon. The city that never sleeps backs onto one of Asia's finest trail networks — over 500km of marked paths weaving through country parks that cover 40% of Hong Kong's land area.

The MacLehose Trail. The Lantau Trail. The Wilson Trail. World-class terrain, extraordinary biodiversity, and a running scene that punches well above its weight.

TransLantau by UTMB takes place on the best of it — 104km of Lantau Island that showcases exactly why this city is one of trail running's best-kept secrets.

Come for the race. Stay for the trails.

大多數城市有公園。香港有山。🌿

問任何一位曾到訪香港的越野跑手，他們都會說同一件事：沒想到香港是這樣的。

從中環出發不到45分鐘，你就可以站在山脊上，望著南中國海延伸至天邊。這個不夜城的背後，是亞洲最佳越野跑網絡之一——超過500公里的標記路徑，穿越佔香港土地面積40%的郊野公園。

麥理浩徑、鳳凰徑、衛奕信徑。世界級地形、豐富的生態多樣性，以及一個在國際舞台上表現出眾的跑步社群。

飛越大嶼 by UTMB 就在這片土地上舉行——104公里的大嶼山路線，完美展現香港為何是越野跑界最被低估的目的地。

來參加比賽，留下來探索這片山野。
