From the Organizer
Come to Kailua Beach Park for a scenic romp through Lanikai! Bunch start at the Lanikai Monument on the hill entering Lanikai, then two counterclockwise loops of the Lanikai Bike Path with the finish near the Lanikai Boat Ramp. Faster runners should move to the front and walkers towards the back to avoid collisions.
When you finish, enjoy free shave ice by Island Snow! Yummy and refreshing! Make it a beach day and experience beautiful Kailua Beach or world-famous Lanikai Beach!
This 8K run/walk is in memory of Daniel Levey and there is a special award to first finisher in his age group. Daniel Levey was a young man who died 23 years ago at age 19 in a hiking accident, the day after completing the Lanikai 8K in 2003. This race is held in his memory and generously supported by his parents, Dr. Joyce Cassen and Norm Levey.
Parking is available in the Boat Ramp area as well as in Kailua Beach Park.
Two opportunities to get your packet: (1) the day before the race (Saturday) 1:00 to 3:00 PM at The Running Room, 819 Kapahulu Ave. or on (2) race morning starting at 5:30 a.m.
Results will be available almost immediately online at timelinehawaii.com. Awards will be presented at the race to the top three male and female finishers as well as the top three in 5-year age groups.
Time, date, and/or location can change before registration opening.
