Hawaii Running: Marathons in Paradise
Running in Hawaii is less about setting a new personal record and more about surviving the relentless sunshine while soaking up some of the most spectacular views on Earth. The state’s premier running event is the Honolulu Marathon, held annually on Oahu. This world-renowned race is unique because it has no time limit and attracts participants who prioritize the experience over speed. The course features famous Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head Crater, and stunning coastal roads, giving runners a true scenic tour of the island’s highlights.
For those looking to escape the main island's crowds, the Maui Marathon (which also includes a Half Marathon) offers a different kind of paradise challenge. Voted one of the most scenic marathons in the world, the course runs primarily along the western coast, connecting the historic town of Ma‘alaea to the famed Kaanapali Beach resort. The race starts early, allowing runners to watch a magnificent sunrise over the ocean, making the heat and hills worthwhile for the sheer beauty alone.
Beyond the full distance, Hawaii’s calendar is rich with challenging destination races that utilize the islands' volcanic terrain. The Kauai Half Marathon, for instance, provides a hilly and tropical tour through tunnels of trees and past waterfalls. Regardless of the island or distance, every race in Hawaii guarantees a post-run recovery that involves sand, surf, and deserved relaxation.
