If you never dare to dream, you never really live. For me, I am very pleased with the outcome of the event despite not completing the distance goal. The awareness and support for Trevor was the main goal, and for that I cannot be happier. Ultimately, I had to withdraw after some health problems…
This is a comment that is not based on any particular runner’s experiences, and is not directed at anyone. It is a general lamentation based on some observations I have had over the past years and meant as a point of contemplation for all of us as we continue to meet the challenge of our…
It was a great day on the trails on Saturday and there were about a dozen people out despite the pending Marathon. Conditions were a bit muddy in places, and Pauoa was a snake filled pool, but it was a bit cool with the cloud cover and everyone was making time. But things slowly began…
Well I went to the orthopedist at the VA and he is now sending me to the orthopedic surgeon at Tripler to have surgery. I asked him if I could run HURT 100 and he said that I could do permanent damage. He also said that the injury is probably going to be chronic and…
John, Cheryl and Mike: Guess I don't get to say 'Aloha' any more. I was hoping you guys would pass my sincere thanks along to the HURT gang for the past three years. I only had addresses for you guys and I'm not sure how to post to the HURT blog. I can only figure…
The Nuuanu stash has been replenished. There are now 7 gallons of water and 3 gallons of sports drink out there. I didn't add snacks since there's plenty left. Although I bumped into some hardy runners who will most likely take a bite out of our supplies tonight… Happy trails!

I have dropped out of the challenge. After 20 days my stats are: 234 miles, 44,954 calories burned, and 59 hours 29 minutes ran. The reason for my dropping out of the challenge was I woke up this morning with pain in my hamstring and knee. I went to the doctor and they took an x-ray…
Well I am more than halfway through the month in this challenge. There are 5 of us out of 9 left. After today we will have run 171 miles. Collectively we have run 1028 miles. I have ran 177 miles since the 1st of November. I went to California, to see my Grandma pass away, and continued the challenge running…
Fish, Mauricio and I headed out from Nature Center at 6:00pm Friday to run through the night, as most of HURT running is at night. The humid weather hit us fast, and Mauricio flipped his already injured ankle just after Hogsback. We methodically made our path into the darkness to connect with Ben at Paradise. …
Departing Nature Center at 5:30pm for a HURT double. Parking below at the Pumping Station and will have goodies stashed at Paradise Park. Excellent HURT training, and only 7 weekends of training until HURT 09! Join me for the 40, or jump on the trail when you can, and connect with the AM group running…
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.
