HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 9 July 2021 – As the
pandemic gradually calms down, though overseas vacations are impossible this
summer, we can still have fun from local outdoor activities, mountain climbing
and running activities. Amidst pandemic disruptions to daily lives, Cushman and

Bountiful rewards and race for charity
Not only are the bountiful race packs and post
event gifts tempting, the race itself is also meaningful. By downloading the
Strava App and signing up the “Run for Taste” club, participants will contribute
charity miles to the “F&B Run Club – Run to the Moon” project,
which aims to reach a 384,400 km goal (equivalent to the distance from the
Earth to the Moon) for charity purpose.
F&B Run Club is a network of owners
and staff working within the food & beverage industry, who are on a mission
to raise money for worthy charities through various activities that integrate
wellness, self-betterment, health and social responsibilities.
