Tsang Siu Keung, Stone
Sport: Trail Running
Nationality: Chinese, resident of Hong Kong
Born and raised in a small town in Mainland China, Stone moved to Hong Kong as a teenager and has become one of the most successful trail runners in Asia over the past two decades. Stone is a two-time top 10 finisher of the Ultra Trail World Tour and is the only 3-time top 20 Chinese finisher in the history of the UTMB, the world’s most competitive trail running race. He has won a multitude of major races in Asia and was the Overall Champion of Europe’s Ultra Trail Mount Rosa in 2017. Stone is the true OG of the sport in Asia, having been a sponsored athlete by The North Face for nearly 20 years and a pioneer for all Asia trail running professionals.
Stone is also a community leader in the outdoor industry in Hong Kong, having spearheaded many youth and adult trail running coaching clinics, seminars and various other projects, including a major moment (involving hundreds of volunteers and government consultants) to save natural trails from being concreted and destroyed. In 2022, Stone published the first book on the sport of ultra trail running in Chinese language.
When not training, racing, community building or embracing fatherhood, Stone also still works as a paramedic helping to treat casualties and save lives throughout Hong Kong.
