I ran on my own, starting from a point at seashore, lap around the outermost periphery of Lantau

Island, and end at where I started.  A pretty straightforward run. Carried one bottle of nutrition

drink to cover scores of miles. Take my time to rest, got resupply of food and water from convenience

stores on the route.
