Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon - Corporate Challenge 2012
5 February 2012, Sunday
Every year Standard Chartered Bank invites corporations and institutions to participate in the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon - Corporate Challenge 2012.
HOW DOES IT WORK
Your organisation is welcomed to form one or more corporate teams to enter the Full Marathon (42km), the Half Marathon (21km), or/and the 10km race.
Each team will consist of 4 runners, contributing a minimum payment of HK$5,400, which includes HK$1,200 Race Entry Fee [HK$300 per person x 4] and the remaining balance of HK$4,200 donating to Hong Kong Paralympic Committee and Sports Association for the Physically Disabled (HKPC&SAPD).
Runners will be timed by the official timing system in the official race. The top 3 official times per a team of four will be used to calculate the winning times.
RUN FOR CHARITY
All funds raised through the Corporate Challenge 2012 will be donated to the Hong Kong Paralympic Committee and Sports Association for the Physically Disabled (HKPC&SAPD). In 2011, Standard Chartered’s corporate clients raised HK$1,800,000 for the HKPC&SAPD. 291 team entries were recorded last year.
