Plan Description

Welcome to the ultimate Half Distance Triathlon experience on Hawaii’s legendary Kohala Coast. Imagine launching your race day at sunrise with a 1.2-mile swim in the warm, crystal-clear waters of Pauoa Bay. Nestled beside the luxurious Fairmont Orchid Hotel, the swim is calm, scenic, and unforgettable.

Next, tackle the 56-mile bike course along the historic Full Distance Triathlon World Championship route—wind-swept lava fields, ocean views, and rolling terrain await. Then, transition to a two-loop, 13.1-mile run weaving through the Mauna Lani Golf Course and the rugged beauty of Hoohana Road. Your finish? Honu Pointe—where ocean breezes and volcanic vistas celebrate your journey.

🏝 Race Day Highlights:
✅ Pacific Ocean swim (75°F / 24°C average water temp)
✅ Iconic Kohala Coast bike course
✅ Scenic run through golf course and lava fields
✅ Perfect air temps around 80°F (27°C)
