Saturday Training 5-21-05

Aloha Athletes !

According to the runners, last Saturday’s "Run With a View" HURT Trail Series race was everything from "a really fun race" to "the most fun race that I’ve ever been in !" Thanks to all the hard working volunteers for the fine job ! The next race in the 2005 HURT Trail Series will be on June 4, and will start at the triangle park, at the corner of Makiki St. and Makiki Heights Rd. For details, go to: www.hurthawaii.blogs.com

Saturday Training 5-21-05 "Peacock Flats"

Mike Garcia will be leading us on a full day of the beautiful area around Peacock Flats. Take advantage of this rare opportunity to visit an area that we don’t run/hike often enough. It will be a fun day !

Meeting time: 5:50 am

Starting time: 6:00 am

Meeting place: Dillingham Airfield (drive to the far end of Dillingham Airfield and turn left into the last gate…circle around back and park in the parking lot).

Training: Various trails, jeep roads and roads in the area. Maps and instructions will be provided so you can do as much (or as little) as you like. The hardy ones will most-likely be out for around 10 hours.

IMPORTANT !! Plan ahead and bring all the water/sports drink/food that you will need to survive, as there will only be one water re-fill area. This can be a very dry, hot area and you will most-likely consume more fluids than normal. A hat and sunscreen are a must !
