1)  ​Start time

A distinctive aspect of 4TUL is that participants need a coordinated strategy that combines athleticism with resourceful planning to choose the start time for them from the following: 6:30am, 7:00am, 7:30am, or 8:00am. All participants must complete the first 25km section from Tai Mo Shan Rotary Park to Tuen Mun Ferry Pier, then take the 10:30am ferry from Tuen Mun Ferry Pier to Tai O Public Pier. Failure to board the 10:30am ferry will result in a DNF (Did Not Finish).

​​

2) Time limits

For One Go, Warrior and Half, the time limit for each category is based on the official start time at 7:00am on March 6th 2027. The actual finish time for participants will be based on their elapsed time.

These multiple start times allow runners to choose a start time that best suits their pace and strategy, ensuring they can reach the Tuen Mun Ferry Pier in time for the 10:30am ferry. By offering multiple start times, the race accommodates runners of varying speeds and confidence levels. Slower runners or those less confident in their pace can opt for an earlier start, while faster, more confident runners can choose a later start time.

​

3) Public transport requirements and cutoff time

Participants must use the following public transport between sections:

​

Section 1 to Section 2:

Tuen Mun Ferry Pier to Tai O Public Pier via CKS Fortune Ferry (10:30 ferry ONLY).

​

Section 2 to Section 3 (applicable to One Go & Warrior participants):

​

​

1) 起步時間

4TUL 賽事其中之一的獨特之處是參賽者需要考慮其個人能力及速度等策略去選定起步時間: 早上6時30分、7時正、7時30分及8時正。所有參賽者必須完成由大帽山扶輪公園至屯門碼頭的25公里路段，接著乘搭早上10時30分由屯門碼頭開至大澳碼頭的航班。未能登上10時30分的航班將會視為未能完賽 (DNF)。

2) 限時

2027年3月6日各組別的限時是以7時正的起步時間為基礎。參賽者完成時間以其​經過時間作計算。

​每個組別的起步時間都有多個選擇，旨在確保所有參賽者都能靈活安排時間。這不同時間起步的安排讓參賽者選擇最適合自己速度和策略，確保他們能夠準時抵達屯門碼頭，乘搭早上10時30分的航班。透過提供多個起步時間的選擇，可滿足參賽者不同速度和信心的需求。速度較慢或對自身速度缺乏信心的參賽者可以選擇較早的起跑時間；相反，速度較快、信心充足的參賽者則可以選擇較遲的起步時間。​

4TUL started as my personal challenge in 2020, it then evolved as an event open to public for the same challenge.  In 2021,  4TUL became a trail running race.  4TUL Extreme, 100 miles version, was introduced in 2023.  In 2024,the 4TUL story continues, the race will be doing the loop in reverse (anti-clockwise).

A great race, combining pacing along with strategy connecting all four run legs with MTR and ferries. If first you don’t succeed, try again!

The 4TUL is an incredible experience – the beautiful route takes you from the heart of a country park in New Territories into the middle of city on HK Island and then back out again into New Territories via Lantau Island. 

As an enthusiastic newcomer to ultra running, I originally signed up to complete the 4-in-a-Row format only. However, after running each of the sections and loving the route, I knew I wanted to take on the full One-Go Challenge. I immediately signed up as a One Go Participant, started looking into ferry timetables and planning the logistics… It was my first time running more than 50KM in one go and my first time running solo at night, and I loved the whole experience and challenge. I can’t wait to sign up again for the 3rd Edition!
