History

The race began in 1973. Year 1973 ( MCMLXXIII) was a Common year starting on Monday (link will display full calendar of the 1973 Gregorian calendar. During its formative period (1973-1978) the Honolulu Marathon doubled in size every year—a rate that has been equaled only once. That growth, like the growth of long-distance running itself, came about not from an interest in competition, but from a quest for personal longevity and an enhanced quality of life.

At the forefront of the growth of the Honolulu Marathon was cardiologist Jack Scaff, one of the first physicians to prescribe running as therapy for heart disease. In 1977 Sports Illustrated's senior writer and Olympic marathoner Kenny Moore wrote a feature story about the race. Sports Illustrated is an American Sports Magazine owned by media conglomerate Time Warner. Kenneth ("Kenny" Moore (born December 1, 1943 in Eugene Oregon) is an American athlete and journalist That article was soon followed by the book "The Honolulu Marathon," by journalist Mark Hazard Osmun; the book was a revelatory chronicle of the then-unfolding social craze called the "Running Boom," as exemplified in the Honolulu event.

Over time, the race grew and changed, luring large corporate sponsors and paying substantial prize money to the winners. In 1995, the Honolulu Marathon enjoyed the distinction of being the world's largest marathon when it drew 34,434 entrants. Year 1995 ( MCMXCV) was a Common year starting on Sunday. Events of 1995

Unique to the Honolulu Marathon among American marathons is its popularity among runners from Japan, where there are very few marathons open to all entrants. For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Japan topics. In recent years, the majority of entrants have been visitors from Japan. The marathon is popular enough that the Honolulu Marathon Association maintains an office in Tokyo to process entries. officially, is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan and located on the eastern side of the main island Honshū. Japan Air Lines has been the title sponsor of the race since 1985, and four of the five supporting or contributing sponsors are Japanese companies (the only American sponsor is Nike, and the Saturn Corporation has been the official car supplier since 2007).

In 2006, 17,905 of the total 28,635 entries were from Japan, which made up nearly 62. 5 percent of the field.

Course

Starting near Ala Moana Beach Park across from Ala Moana Center, the course progresses west along the waterfront toward downtown Honolulu, then loops through downtown and bends back east through Waikiki, around Diamond Head, and out toward the eastern suburbs of Honolulu, winding through Hawaii Kai before doubling back toward the finish line at Waikiki's Kapiolani Park. Ala Moana Center in Honolulu is the largest Shopping mall in Hawaii and the fourteenth largest shopping mall in the United States Downtown Honolulu is the current and historic central part of Honolulu &mdashbounded by Nuuanu Stream to the west Ward Avenue to the east Vineyard Boulevard to the north Waikiki ( Hawaiian: Waikīkī ʋaikiːkiː or waikiːkiː is a neighborhood of Honolulu, in the City & County of Honolulu, on the south Hawaii Kai is a largely residential area located in the City & County of Honolulu, in the District of Honolulu on the island of O{{okina}}ahu. Waikiki ( Hawaiian: Waikīkī ʋaikiːkiː or waikiːkiː is a neighborhood of Honolulu, in the City & County of Honolulu, on the south Kapiolani Regional Park is the largest and oldest public park in Hawai{{okina}}i, located in Honolulu Hawai{{okina}}i on the east end of Waikīkī. Marathoners consider the course moderately difficult because of the tropical weather conditions, with temperatures starting at around 65°F (18°C) and rising to as high as 80°F (27°C), and a relatively hilly course compared with other marathons. Nevertheless, the race also remains a popular choice for first-time marathoners.

Satellite races in Iraq and Afghanistan

The Honolulu Marathon has been popular with U. S. military personnel stationed in Hawaii. With many Hawaii-based troops deployed abroad, the marathon coordinated with the military to organize satellite marathon races on U. S. bases in Iraq and Afghanistan on the same day as the main race, with finishers receiving the same T-shirts and medals. For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Iraq topics. Afghanistan /æfˈgænɪstæn/ officially the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan ( Pashto: د افغانستان اسلامي جمهوریت, The first such race was held in 2004 at a U.

Year 2005 ( MMV) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link displays full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. Baghdad (بغداد) is the Capital of Iraq and of Baghdad Governorate, with which it is also coterminous

Finishers

In recent years, on average, about 25,000 runners finish the Honolulu Marathon each year, and it has consistently placed among the world's ten largest marathons in terms of total finishers. Entry to the Honolulu Marathon is open to anyone who can pay the entry fee. Unlike other marathons of similar size, popularity, and stature, there are no qualifying standards to meet, no fixed limits on the number of runners, and no time limit to finish the course (all runners receive an official time and certificate).

Over the past 34 years, more than 585,000 runners have started the Honolulu Marathon, with over 482,000 finishers, for a finishing rate of over 82%. [1]

Winners

Although the difficulty of the course precludes world-record pace performances, winners of the Honolulu Marathon have used it as a stepping stone to greater achievements. For instance, three-time winner Ibrahim Hussein of Kenya later won the Boston Marathon three times; and 1993 winner Bong-Ju Lee won the silver medal in the 1996 Olympic Marathon in Atlanta. The Boston Marathon is an annual marathon sporting event hosted by the city of Boston, Massachusetts
