Kikukawa’s Conquer

The Molokai mother-son combo of Sue and Luke Kikukawa dominated the Aloha Run on Feb. 16 in Honolulu. The Kikukawa duo placed first in their respective divisions. Luke was crowned keiki champ out of over 100 competitors. He surged past all runners and finished the 1.5 mile course 30 seconds ahead of second place. “I encouraged Luke to have fun and not worry about winning,” supportive Sue stated. She has coached for over 20 years and holds running practices for keiki ages 8-14 at the High School track Thursdays at 3:30 p.m.
