Tom Maliszewski, 33, Detroit
“This is my first time on the island and first race in Hawaii. It was an awesome day,” he said. “The course is challenging, but it was the perfect day for me. I felt good.”
“This is my first time on the island and first race in Hawaii. It was an awesome day,” he said. “The course is challenging, but it was the perfect day for me. I felt good.”
Maliszewski said the atmosphere around Kona pumped him up for the race.
“There’s a buzz. It was great. You could feel it all building up all week,” he said. “I loved it.”
His wife, Erica, said she walked back and forth along Alii Drive, taking in the spectacle.
“It’s such an inspiring thing to watch. It’s just amazing to me how many people do this and it’s so incredible to see it,” she said. “The energy here is amazing and the people are great.”
The couple, who have a 3-year-old son (and two dogs) waiting at home, plan to see some Big Island sights before making departing.
“Now it’s time to relax,” Maliszewski said. “And take it easy.”
Maliszewski finished in 9:45:57.
