There will be a small group of runners that will be doing something very unusual (for HURT runners) this Saturday morning. We’ll be doing something called a “taper” run. That’s pronounced, táy-pər, and it means to reduce gradually. I know it sounds like a crazy idea NOT to go out and run beyond the point…
Hi, In preparation for the UTAT next week I generated approximate track and waypoint files to have in my gps device in case of emergency. If you'd like to see the course, download either the .gpx or .kml files from here and open them in goodle earth – select the track and then hit the play button…
Somewhere around 6:30 to 7:00AM at the airfield. 5:00AM at Long Road. If you are doing the full loop do a stash at long road. Bring water, nutrition and essentials for yourself for a full loop. Don't be cute and go it alone unless you know where you are going, or think a marker on…
Aloha all: I hope your training for the Peacock 100k is going well. I think Gordon may have been one of those people who interrogated prisoners by using waterboarding and other questionable means, then decided that wasn't enough torture and came up with this route.Since AJ did such a wonderful job with the HURT 100…
Another Saturday option… A small group of us will be running the top secret trails above the North Shore surf breaks again this weekend. So if you trashed yourself last weekend (like I did), and would enjoy a slightly less punishing run this weekend (like I would), so you can trash yourself again next weekend…
Planning a Friday night run leaving from Maunawili Falls Trailhead in the Maunawili subdivision around 6PM and running over to Paradise Park, then back. Long-slow run over the Pali (no pork please), through Jackass Ginger, over to PP then return to Maunawili. Looking for company from anyone that has too many daytime commitments to run when…
So here is the score. You don't have to go to Peacocks this week to get in some bad ass training time. But the flip side is that if you don't go to Peacocks this weekend you will be missing some bad ass training time. The only way out of the conundrum is to split…
Hi HURT club members, I'm Brandon, a runner from AZ, visiting O'ahu until September 28th. I would like to join the group for a couple of the upcoming training runs at Peacock. I have access to a car and could offer a ride from Aina Haiana area. Would like to have a contact at the…
You got the idea??? Get out there and Suffer. Take your own water to the top, stop yer whinning, NOBODY cares if you think it's all BS. Want to finish the hardest 100 K in about 5000 miles? Then you best be out there this weekend. Saturday. Long Road at 5:00 AM, Airport…
No more of these sissy short sprints, no more tinni-wheeny ten mile loops being called 'training', no more 'one bottle' wandering, It is time to prove you actually deserve that HURT shirt, or are deserving of one sometime. Real training is upon us, and you are provided with a number of alternatives to test…
For anyone interested, the Hardrock 100 entry form is available on their website. I highly recomend this race to everyone who qualifies. www.Hardrock100.com
On Friday I did the UTMB-CCC the 98k 5500m little sister to the 160k UTMB proper. This runs from Courmeyeur in Italy via Champex in Switzerland to Chamonix in France After changing forecasts race morning the forecast was for thunderstorms so they decided to reroute us so that instead of a few high passes from…
HURT enjoys the privilege of partnerships with State and Federal agencies that hold the responsibility of protecting Oʻahu public lands. Those partnerships are based upon mutual trust and cooperation and shared concerns for the ʻaina. To keep that trust and continue to be provided the opportunity to host trail events, we (HURT) must understand and abide by rules that govern our partner agencies.
HURT does organize and facilitate official trail maintenance only when coordination with our partners has occurred. All trail work is performed under the supervision of a permitted individual with advance permissions. Some trails are off-limits for HURT to perform trail maintenance due to the sensitive flora. No HURT trail maintenance will occur outside of these parameters.
HURT and its partner agencies require that no self-directed trail maintenance occur on publicly-owned trails. Any individuals performing trail work outside of official HURT-organized events, are doing so on their own accord and will be held personally responsible by State and Federal agencies for any violations. Such activity could jeopardize our relationships with partner agencies and lead to inability to use public lands for our events.
