Hawaii 13.1
I’ve added two Virtual Hawai’i events.
For $20 you can run the 100% Pure Kona Coffee Marathon or Half. You will also be entered into their prize drawing which includes gear from Big Island Running Company, 100% Pure Kona Coffee and more!
A shirt and medal are not included at this price.
Run the Virtual race this year and set a goal to run on The Big Island next year, or some day.
I’ve also added my personal favorite The Honolulu Marathon.
This Hawai’i event offers the option to run The Honolulu Marathon for $45 or the Start to Park 10K for $40. This also gives you access to the Honolulu Marathon Virtual Beachfest.
You can run the marathon on more than one day by selecting “Multi-day event” at registration.
There is also The Royal Challenge which includes the Start to Park 10K AND the Honolulu Marathon. Registration is $76.
A shirt and medal is provided for each event.
I’ve run The Honolulu Marathon twice and loved it even though it kicked my butt. It’s like Boston if they ran it in July!
You can register and upload your results by Midnight on New Years Eve! And that’s Honolulu time!
You can run the marathon over two days, finish on New Years Eve AND enjoy a cold one or five. It is New Year’s Eve.
When you finish in Kapiolani Park they make you walk to find the tent to pick up your finisher’s shirt. No finish, no shirt!
Right in the park they make the local donut called “Malasala” which is basically a jelly donut. So for the Boston version of the full race experience get some jelly donuts to enjoy with a cold beer on New Year’s Eve.
Here is my race recap from 2018 if you need a little inspiration to sign up.
More 5Ks?
We only have two 5Ks for November and a 5K and 10K for December.
If you have any ideas for 5K or 10K races, please let me know.
Local is good but with virtual races we have the opportunity to “run” in some great locations.
At this point in time, races in late November and anytime in December could work.
Mahalo,
Andy
