We will start the day with a special race highlighting Marine Corps Base Hawaii members. This is Hui Nalu's way of giving back to the base for allowing us to host our race on their base. It is also our way of incorporating them into our race while giving them a little taste of the special sport we all love and enjoy. Please kokua with us as we show our military ohana our aloha and cheer them on during their race. They would be great recipients of a fresh lei!
