The Maui Marathon will celebrate its 38th anniversary on September 14, 2008 yet many do not realize that this event is the longest consecutively held running event in the state of Hawaii. The course is undoubtedly one of the most scenic marathon courses in the world. With over 17 miles of oceanfront running on what Conde Nast Traveler Magazine described as "The World's Best Island," the Maui Marathon is not just a race, it is a vacation in paradise.
