Hawaii Running Lab Val Nolasco
The Hawaii Running Lab Val Nolasco event in Honolulu includes a half marathon and a 5K that both start and finish at Kapiolani Regional Park on Kalakaua Ave, finishing at the Honolulu Marathon finish line. The half marathon course goes over Diamond Head, follows Diamond Head Road and 18th Ave, continues to Kalanianaole Highway out to Wailupe Circle, and returns to the park via Kealaolu and Kahala Ave.
Organizers announced a change in sponsorship from the Running Room to Hawaii Running Lab. They plan improved custom finisher shirts, additional porta potties at the start, and extra schwag for entrants.
