The course
The Hong Kong Marathon starts on Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui and runs up the West Kowloon Highway, across the Stonecutters Bridge and Ting Kau Bridge, through the Nam Wan and Cheung Tsing tunnels and around Tsing Yi Island. It returns via the Western Harbour Tunnel and finishes in Victoria Park, Causeway Bay. The course is rolling and tough for a city marathon, with over 100 m of total elevation change; the bridge climbs are the main hills, and the tunnels add sharp warm-to-cold transitions.
