Come join in the celebration of Maui’s 40^th Anniversary Maui Marathon, Maui Half Marathon, Maui Tacos 5K Run/Walk, and Run Forrest Run Front Street Mile Race Weekend.   

Maui Marathon is recognized as one of the most scenic courses in world with its point-to-point route starting in Kahului, passes moonlit sugarcane fields and hugs the spectacular Pacific coastline for over 17 breathtaking miles.   

Feast on views of the cobalt blue ocean water, its rolling surf and Maui’s neighboring islands of Kaho’olawe, Lana’i and Moloka’i.   

Your journey’s final miles will take you through the historical fishing village of Lahaina before finishing near The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, race headquarters, in the world-famous Ka’anapali Beach Resort home of the Whalers Village.   

The popular Maui Half Marathon features a flat, out-and-back course that traces the final 6.55 miles of the marathon course. This festive 13.1-miler starts at Whalers Village in the Ka’anapali Beach Resort, passes through Lahaina, turns around at Launiupoko Park and returns to Ka’anapali.   

While on Maui, enjoy the island’s 727 square miles of outdoor adventure combining luxury with simplicity like no other island.    

Maui is an island destination where you can take pleasure in exploring its beautiful scenery, sleepy towns and some of the world first class resorts that coexist with Maui’s rich history and culture of Hawaiian mythology.   

The scenic beauty, friendliness and efficiency of the event draws repeat runners annually.

In Honokowai Valley, on Maui’s West Side, an estimated 600 Hawaiian families once lived and worked in a thriving village. Today, more than 100 years later, what they left behind tells a story of self-sufficiency and harmony with the natural environment.  

It’s a story that continues to unfold through the efforts of volunteers like you. All year long, volunteers with Maui Cultural Lands help to weed out invasive species, plant and care for native flora, and uncover stones that were once the foundation for Hawaiian homes and taro patches…read more…MCL
