H.U.R.T. Trail Series “Run with a View” Saturday May 9, 2009

IMG_1199 Aloha Athletes,

The next race in the 2009 H.U.R.T. Trail Series is coming up this Saturday. The Run with A View race is 8 miles of fun. In typical H.U.R.T. style, the course is 4 miles uphill and the second half, all downhill.

2008 race results and photos can be found on the right side using the drop down menus.

Since we are starting in a neighborhood park, let's be good neighbors and keep it quiet during race arrivals and registration.

The race starts at the neighborhood park (on the left) at the corner of
Kaahele St. and Naalii St., goes 1/2 mile up Kaahele St. to the
trailhead and makes a 7 mile clockwise loop on trails before returning
back down Kaahele St. to the park. It is 8 miles total. Lisa Dewald will be
stationed at the only aid station at the 3.5 mile mark, so plan to
bring a water bottle, as you may need it. The race starts at 7:00 am,
so please be there to check in by 6:30 am with your $10 entry
fee.
Awards will be given to the first 10 men and to the first 10 women
finishers and there will be soda, water, gatorade and some food at the
finish. Fun for all ! We also have a limited supply of nice, new
Patagonia/HURT Trail Series shirts for $20 each.
