Honolulu Rainbow Ekiden

History

The Honolulu Rainbow EKIDEN was founded with the mindset to cross pollinate the deep culture of Japan and Hawaii through a fun sporting event that any one can join, creating layers and layers of friendship looking past ethnicity, which in hope, will become a big rainbow for generations to come.

Specialties

60% of our runners are repeaters. Accomplishment, teamwork, fulfillment and bonding are our main keywords. Unlike other relay events/races, every runner will make a loop back to the starting line which makes it great for everyone to see how your and other teams are doing as well as socialize with other runners while you are there. We also have many activities other than the team event such as fitness check, keiki (kids) run and a food vendor event called WaikiKitchen. It's a great event for all generation to get together and have fun!
