About the Bold Like Britt 5K
The race is held at Kainalu Elementary School in Kailua and honors a woman named Britt who survived a devastating crash caused by a drunk driver and has been working her way back to running. The 5K heads out through the neighborhood streets around the school, while a shorter walk option loops the back field. The course is straightforward and mostly flat, returning to the school after a residential out-and-back.
Parking is on the school's back field, reached from Kainalu Drive. Several nonprofit organizations focused on road safety and substance abuse awareness are part of the event, and their presence gives the morning a clear sense of purpose beyond the run itself.
