The Hawaiian Island Challenge Runs are virtual runs of the islands, which can be completed on a treadmill, around your neighborhood, or anywhere you like to run or walk, while safely social distancing and following all state and local laws.
Warning: Actual course shown on maps includes areas where conditions can be dangerous, including, but not limited to traffic, hazardous roads and trails, and hot, rainy, and/or windy weather.
Race Organizers recommend that you complete the entire virtual run in a safe environment. Proceed at your own risk.
