Chairman of the Hong Kong Association of Athletics Affiliates
Mr Kwan Kee

Hong Kong Association of Athletics Affiliates (HKAAA) is proud to announce that the “25th Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon”, will be held on 12th February 2023. With the endless effort and support from our title sponsor, Standard Chartered Bank, government departments, co-sponsors, and other supporting organizations, together with the efforts of colleagues from various departments of HKAAA, we are excited to bring the marathon into the community again.

After discussion with various government departments, there is a significant increase in entry quota. The half marathon and marathon races will be started at Tsim Sha Tsui, while 10km runners will start their race at Island Eastern Corridor. Like last marathon, we welcome all runners back to the finishing arch at Victoria Park. The success of the race relies on the support from everyone in Hong Kong who loves running together with the passion from the public.

Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon marked its 25th edition. There are more than one million and fifty-two thousand participants ran the 10km, half marathon and marathon races since 1997. Except the run, the marathon spirit has also spread to the charity groups and disabled athletes and arouse attention to the people in needed.

My appreciation goes to the title sponsor, Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited, government departments, sponsors, supporting organizations and volunteers for supporting the Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon in the past 25 years. No matter if you are the participated runner or not, I am sure you can enjoy the race along the city-hub and witness it at various media platforms. Wish you all have a wonderful time and I look forward to seeing you all on 12th February!
