  "account": "Pici Hong Kong's annual carb-fueled Pasta Run is set to return for its sixth edition in October, marking the largest edition yet. The unique event, combining fun, community, and a love for pasta, has expanded its Full Run 10-km category to include families for the first time. Participants of all ages can now join the challenge, running together from Kennedy Town's Pici location to Pici Taikoo Place in Quarry Bay. The shorter 5-km Half Run begins in Causeway Bay, concluding at the Harbour Fun Restaurant & Bar. Post-run, runners can enjoy fresh, handmade pasta, drinks, and desserts at the final destination. Dressing up in colorful costumes is a must, with prizes awarded for the Best Dressed Costumes. Registration costs $250 per person, while children under 12 can run for free when accompanied by a paying adult, with all proceeds benefiting Mind HK's mental health initiatives. General registrations are open until October 10 or when spaces are filled.",
