What a race! This was my first time at Western States and my first long run since cancer. So both milestones in one venue. I saw so many HURT runners and friends in Squaw Valley, and they were all so interested in my recovery. That was so cool. I headed to WS to pace my…
Click on photo for instant inspiration. More photos to follow on the blog. Written by Bob Murphy, subjected to rigorours review by Jeff Huff and Matt Stevens I went diving with my son, Kevin on Saturday and I was pretty nervous (scared) when we did a 107 foot dive. I told Jeff that’s the most…

aloha guys and gals, slight switch for Sunday’s run: in order to avoid wasted time in cars, we are going to meet at Maunawili Park, do Olo Mana’s 3 peaks, go through the irrigation tunnel of death and then proceed back to the hairpin turn and then back to the cars. This will be a…
aloha everybody, Jeff Huff and I were talking last night, and we wanted to put together the easiest stretch of 20 miles we could find for a little run on Sunday morning. We will be meeting at Nature Center at 5:45 AM, proceed to Nu’uanu via the trails, cross over the Pali Lookout and join…
The race was this weekend and unfortunately that meant a few of us had to miss Bob’s farewell. Aloha and GOOD LUCK Bob. The weather was pleasant and not too hot. A little wind, but all in all a great day for HURT. Nick Kaiser qualified once again as did Wendy Minor. Gil Loomis will…

Gordon maps out an adventure….one way or the other. Gordon Lau got the highest praises from all for his planning and implementation of last Saturday’s training run. It was an adventure through new and uncharted (for most of the HURT crowd) areas around Ka’ahele and Waimano. It would be hard to elaborate the full extent…
