Honolulu Triathlon<\/h2>\n
When we think of professional athletes, our minds tend to drift to the millionaire superstars who relish in the endorsement opportunities and jersey sales. However, those interested in finding out what it truly means to be an athlete should make their way over to the annual Honolulu Triathlon. Every mid-May at Ala Moana Beach Park, thousands gather to observe one of the most grueling forms of competition on the planet. The Honolulu Triathlon follows the Olympic format of a triathlon, which features 1.5 kilometers of swimming, 40 kilometers of cycling and a 10-kilometer run. In addition to the actual race, there are a few days of festivities prior to the big event, where local food vendors will be on full display and entertainment can be experienced all around the streets. If you think you’re up for a challenge, you can sign up for the intermediate or beginner triathlon races, which certainly aren’t as grueling as the main event, but will still put your athletic ability to the test.<\/p>\n
