Posted Wednesday, 24 December, 2008
Kihei, Maui - December 24, 2008. The Inaugural Neways Maui Paradise Marathon announced its prize money purse of $1700 today for the first three overall men and women finishers in the full marathon, half marathon and 5K. There is also a performance incentive purse of $5500 for the overall first place male and female finishers for the full marathon and half marathon who achieve certain times in winning. The fastest Kama'aina male and female finishers in all three events will get a special (non monetary) award.
In addition the Neways Maui Paradise Marathon announced that the Keiki (Kids) races are now free of charge. These age-group races for ages up to six years old will be run in the Kalama Beach Park on grass and will vary in distance from 25 to around 400 yards. The distance is age dependent. We encourage you to signup on or before Saturday, January 10 so as not to miss out on this great opportunity.
So while you are thinking of how much of this snow laden winter is still ahead, how about checking your frequent flyer miles or the Internet for deals and spend a few days in Maui, watch the whales, get a tan and run next to the blue Pacific. You can even use the marathon as a Boston qualifier.
