The 8.15-mile run starts at Aloha Tower in Honolulu and ends at Aloha Stadium in Halawa. GAR has an inclusive philosophy with divisions for elites, age groups, wheelchair and hand-cycle competitors, Sounds of Freedom (military running in formation), and those who just want to walk with friends. GAR has been recognized nationally as one of the top “100 Great Road Races” by Runner’s World Magazine. There’s also a three day sports, health, and fitness expo over the race weekend.
