Key Facts
---Standouts
Hawaii's toughest road marathon — a hilly loop from Poipu past volcanic peaks and rainforest on Kauai's south shore, Sep 6, 2026. +620 m, 7-hour limit, not a Boston qualifier.
Why attend here
Kauai's September brings warm, drier weather, ideal for exploring the island's lush interior after your race. Wander the historic Koloa town for plantation-era charm, then refuel with fresh poke and a shave ice in Poipu, all while soaking in the oceanfront views that make this loop so memorable.
