Six-year-old trail runner shows up her dad in family kayak ‘n’ run race
Hong Kong families take to the trail and water during a family kayak ‘n’ run race, where some competitors are as young as five
Six-year-old Lucinda Nazer said she was fitter than her dad, as she finished the kayak ‘n’ run race in Tai Tam on Saturday morning.
“This was my first one. I won’t do another. It’s so long,” she said. Lucinda added that the kayaking was especially hard.
Lucinda’s father, David, and teammate for the day, laughed when asked if he had trained for the race.
“This was our first one. I have two other daughters, so this was the dry run before going with the others,” he said.
The atmosphere at the finish line was light hearted and relaxed as families congratulated each other and parents beamed with pride over their tired children. The race is part of an ongoing kayak ‘n’ run series.
