EPIC5 Ultra Endurance Adventures
E komo mai
Welcome! Since 2010, EPIC5 has been creating extraordinary ultra-endurance events that push athletes beyond their limits. These once-in-a-lifetime challenges have transformed the lives of many participants, offering not just physical tests but opportunities for profound mental and spiritual growth.
Our upcoming events will challenge athletes in the breathtaking landscapes of the Hawaiian Islands, honoring their rich history and culture while embracing the spirit of kokua—the value of helping and giving back. This year, we’re proud to partner with Special Olympics Hawaii to support and uplift their local teams.
We’re looking for dedicated athletes who crave adventure and want to make a difference. Are you ready to take on the challenge?
