Karina Dimech

Hi, my name is Karina. I’m originally from the UK, but I’ve been living in Hong Kong for the last 7 years. I’ve always loved hiking and when I first got here I couldn’t believe I was seeing people RUNNING on the trails! When my plans for my first road marathon in 2020 were cancelled due to Covid, trail running was the logical next step and I never looked back! 

These days I lean towards self challenges over races and love the psychological aspect of ultra marathons - who doesn’t love a bit of type 2 fun?! There are so many good things about trail running - the peace of the trails, the playful running and the many many snacks - which make getting out on the trails a dream. I love sharing the trails with others and creating a supportive and encouraging environment where they can realise they’re capable of so much more than they imagined.
