King's Runner 10K

King's Runner 10K is run in Honolulu, Hawaii, on March 7, 2027. The single format is a 10K that starts and finishes at Thomas Square on a flat, fast course. It is scheduled a month before the Hapalua, Hawaii's half marathon, and is designed as a tune-up for it. No start time is listed.

That timing is the whole point: a 10K four weeks out from a half marathon is close to ideal for testing goal pace without needing a long taper or a long recovery. Race it hard, take two easy days afterward, then return to your half marathon long runs. If the Hapalua is not on your calendar, a flat 10K is still a clean place to chase a personal best — go through 5K a touch slower than target pace and spend the second half reeling people back in.
