Gare di 10K vicino a Ewa Beach

Makoa is a 5K, 10K, and half marathon series held at Wai Kai in Ewa Beach on West Oahu. The start and finish are at Hawaii's sole waterfront recreation facility. The event also offers a 5K Turkey Trot for Heroes. The name, pronounced mah-KOH-ah, means brave, fearless, or courageous. The courses are flat and fast, with each route measured at least three times before race day. Aid stations are positioned about a mile apart, offering water, electrolytes, and first aid, with medical support at every start and finish line. Finishers receive custom medals with distance-specific ribbons, cooling towels, free professional race photos, and a post-race meal of breakfast burritos and chocolate milk.

The Ku'ikahi 5K & 10K is a road race in Honolulu, starting from Ala Moana Beach Park, offering both 5K and 10K distances. Aloha Racing presents the event, which begins early in the morning on a fast, flat oceanfront course. It is a relatively new race, with an expected field of approximately 1 to 100 participants, distinguishing it from large city races. Both distances incorporate Magic Island, the peninsula adjacent to Ala Moana, before proceeding along the water. Runners are treated to unobstructed views of Waikiki, the turquoise ocean, and Diamond Head, with the sound of waves audible along sections of the path. The park's environment also facilitates easy spectating for friends and family, allowing them to cheer without needing to travel across town.
