Q & A
I want to run the marathon distance, but I’m not sure I can finish it. Would you allow me to opt for the Half Marathon distance if I feel I won’t be able to finish the full Marathon?
If you are debating between two distances, always choose the lesser one to sign in with. In this case Half Marathon. If you are feeling good – you can always run longer and finish the 30K or Marathon distance. On the other hand, if you choose the Marathon, and only finish a Half, then it will officially count as a DNF (Did Not Finish). We do this for official record keeping purposes (ex. 50 States Club) as we need to keep track of how many people start and finish for each distance. Regardless of the distance you finish… you will receive a Finishers Certificate and Award for the distance finished! Along with a tech material t-shirt.
Where do we park? Can I leave my things somewhere?
There is street parking on Kealahou St. directly in front of Kalama Valley Park.
Map location: 555 Kealahou St. Honolulu, HI 96825
Some participants have used their car as a personal aid station. You can do this. However, if you would like to leave a gear bag or a cooler with drinks and food at our main check-in canopy tent – you are welcome to do so. Please label it with your name for easy identification.
What’s your recommended start time? What’s the earliest I can start? It says 8:08 am on your website. Can I start my run Saturday night? say 7 pm? Can I start on Sunday instead? What’s the latest we can run in the day?
You can start anytime on Saturday… morning, afternoon, night… or even anytime on Sunday. We’ll be there setting up at 3 AM on Saturday. Just sign in with your starting time. We keep track of time for official record keeping purposes, and publish them on our website for the same reason. However, they will not appear on your Finisher Certificate or Award. This is not a race. It is a personal challenge. For that reason, we also do not have cutoff times, as long as you start before noon on Saturday and remain on the course. Rest when you need to, and then continue your run/walk.
How are the laps recorded, timing chip, manual? Just curious about keeping an “official” time. How will that be done?
There is no chip timing. It is a personal challenge, not a race. So, the honor system is in place. How does that saying go?… “If you cheat, you’re only cheating yourself.” After you sign in with your starting time, you will check off each time you complete a loop. There may be volunteers on hand to assist you. However, if not – just check it off yourself. When you finish, you will record your finish time, and collect your Finishers Certificate.
Are there restrooms available near the course, even during the night?
Restrooms are available 24 hours at Kalama Valley Park
Do I have to worry about cars or cross traffic?
Please obey all traffic rules, including crosswalks and signals. This is not a closed course. It’s open to all normal traffic. You may run/walk on the sidewalk or edge of the road. It is advised to run facing traffic. This is considered safer as you won’t have cars coming from your back. It’s a residential area, so the traffic is somewhat light, especially on the weekend. However, there can be a good amount of cars headed towards Sandy Beach later in the morning/afternoon.
Do I need headlamps or flashlights?
If you are running during dawn/dusk or darkness, then reflective gear is strongly recommended. Along with a safety vest and/or flasher or small flashlight. There are street lights in this residential area. However, there are a few sections without. And, greater visibility as a runners is important. Especially if a driver may have poor, or impaired vision. As the saying goes… “Better safe than sorry.”
Finishers receive a certificate and an award?
All participants will receive a t-shirt and Finisher Certificate on site, for the distance they complete. Awards will be mailed.

And, Mahalo to the continued support from our sponsors: Phiten Hawaii with their body care goodie bags, and Hybrid Design for their excellent event shirts and fast service. Special recognition goes to Poppy Greer for finishing her 50th State Half Marathon. And, to Les Omura – who finished 2 Marathons in 2 Days for the second consecutive time at a HKUR event this year. There were first time finishers at nearly every distance. And, there was a LOT of experience out there on the course. These four runners combined for more than 3,650 marathons completed! Henry Rueden, Eugene Bruckert, Eugene DeFronzo, and Jeffrey Vieyra. Simply inspiring!! Our youngest finisher – age 11, and oldest – 82.

Results from the 2018 Hawaii Kai Ultra Run – XTreme
Mahalo to everyone participating in this years event.
There was a record turnout – 81, with runners (and walkers) finishing distances from a Half Marathon (13.1 miles) to 100 Miles! Yes, we’ve been waiting for someone to finish 100 Miles on this course for years now, and Blaine Lints came through big time, finishing in just under 21 hours! We also opened it up to back-to-back days with Les Omura and Ruth Modisette both finishing the Marathon x 2. The next HKUR event will be on December 15 & 16, 2018 in Kalama Valley, and again in July 2019 with the XTreme course.
We couldn’t do it without our sponsors. Mahalo!
